Harry Stein and Physics (sri-unix.514)
	The Dean drive? That hoary fraud?  Next you'll be telling me about
a new perpetual motion device.  I suspect the science articles in Analog
have been influenced by the ghost of its most famous editor, John Campbell.
(spelling?)  As a science-fiction pulp editor, he was great.  However,
he entertained notions like Dianetics, psi, the Dean Drive, et. al.

(And Dianetics actually started in the pages of Amazing, the predecessor
to Analog.)
