What makes our desk "solid"? Quantum Physics ?

How so? Zeroths law for thermodynamic equilibrium, conservation of energy, add in entropy, and something else.
I think Einstien put it best when he said E=mc2. I think he did a pretty good job of explaing the coalation between mass and energy. which would explain where the first law applies.
Here is good link that explains how the second law applies. So is it the the higgs boson that is the golden egg? This is where string theory, quantum physics and intellegent design start coming into play. This is the law that addresses the beginning of the universe "zero entropy" and what starts scientist asking questions.http://www.allaboutscience.org/secon...modynamics.htm
The third law elaborates even more on space and time.

igsistance?
conshusness?
Do they still teach kids how to spell these days? Sorry, not just trying to rip on you, but it just bothers me how badly high school students write these days.

It bothers me how frequently old people stereotype these days.
D and F orbitals can hold more than 8 electrons, but any given atom can only hold up to 8 valence electrons.

I'm actually only 23. Just get disgusted at how poorly people write, especially younger people. By the way, sorry for the post, it was counter-productive.

mmm - no. Einstein and Newton are completely at odds with one another. If they weren't then Newtonian laws could be comfortably integrated into a unified field theory through Einstein's relativity equation.
As it stands they are not, nor can they be, integrated.

Chemistry - physics?

One day they will be integrated, but they aren't yet.

Are you talking chemistry or physics?
Chemistry assumes orbitals. At this point it works and it's convenient, but it is a Classical methodology for describing a Quantum occurence. It starts breaking down when Classical Chemistry is applied on the Organic level, especially in Bio-chemistry.
Physics already knows orbitals don't exist as such. Electrons are not in orbit around the nucleus. It goes so far as to be dependent on the observer whether or not they are even particles or waves.
