In addition, strong tidal currents can corral fish into one area, and if fishermen know when that current will occur, they'll hit the jackpot. Tide tables are also useful in planning coastal construction projects, as well as coastal rehabilitation work and disaster cleanups. Many people use the tables for recreational pursuits, too, such as surfers looking to catch the ultimate wave.

In 1911, Niels Bohr earned his PhD in Denmark with a dissertation on the electron theory of metals. Right afterwards, he went to England to study with J.J. Thomson, who had discovered the electron in 1897. Most physicists in the early years of the twentieth century were engrossed by the electron, such a new and fascinating discovery. Few concerned themselves much with the work of Max Planck or Albert Einstein.
