Disclaimer

Although the complete atomic theory may be a crock as far as accuracy is concerned, using this theory practically and treating materials as if they obeyed this theory, and designing machines based upon applications of this theory, gives results. You are reading this statement on a computer designed with some very basic assumptions.

This is stated for those who feel the atomic theory to be incorrect. This page is not intended to argue over its merits, but rather to present it in a manner easy to consume.

Therefore, DO NOT e-mail me with arguments about this page in regards to the truth of the atomic theory, unless you feel you have something interesting to contribute or unless I've made some mistake.
