no, he was the head of the now defunct AEC (Atomic Energy Commission) - which was replaced by the DOE (Department of Energy).

believe that was kinda necessary to tell the story of Oppenheimer's life though- movie wasn't about the Manhattan Project- it was about Oppenheimer. his battle with Strauss and losing his security clearance and going from hero to outcast is an important part of Oppenheimer's life story.

I don't disagree, indeed it was the story of Oppenheimer and not just about the bomb.  Just felt the intensity of the Strauss angle was overdone.   Too much Strauss.

I went last night. I found it extremely boring a difficult to hear ( I’m extremely hard of hearing but usually do ok in movies). Not sure if I just wasn’t in the mood or not, but I walked out about an hour in. All the jumping around really messed with me, although I come to expect it in a CN movie.

unfortunately, as they've ruined everything, the Octoberfest beers are gone by October when the weather turns.

Wolfram Alpha

Wolfram Alpha is the awesome artificially intelligent graphing calculator that you wish you had in high school. Want to know what a function looks like? Done. Want to see how to solve an equation, step by step? Can do. Want to know the nutrition facts of a cubic parsec of fried chicken? Not a problem. Wolfram Alpha has a bizarrely broad and sophisticated suite of features, and is the student's best friend.
