Definitely what I want to know, and why I upvoted it. I have to imagine commercial interests would pay a great deal of money for this domain, so it's intriguing it's held out, presumably for a long time, as a location of a simple HTML page with some quotes on it.

It might depend on your background how much you can enjoy that. I am physicist, did not yet know this quote of Maxwell and think that it is pure gold. When I read it, I immediately thought:

"Dear James Maxwell, you nailed it."

For some reason I arbitrarily typed physics.com and was pleasantly surprised as well.

Without ad-blocker there is an amazon ad-widget for selling physics-related books.
