Why Ludwig Boltzmann is Awesome
Two reasons:

1: He killed himself because no one wanted to believe his science. He could see no other explanation for his data and theoretical results, yet he couldn't convince his colleagues that he was right (note: he was right).

2: His grave. The only thing on his tombstone, other than his name and born/died dates, is S = k. log W. He kills himself and all he wants is one permanent record of his science? Hard core, man, hard core. Also, look at it. I hope people remember me as looking that awesome after I'm gone.
