MR Eugene Paul Winger, one of the world's outstanding nuclear scientists, is widely celebrated for his contributions to atomic research. He is also renowned, among his friends, for his overwhelming politeness. Once, encountering a vile-tempered attendant at a car park, Dr Winger listened dispassionately to a long torrent of abuse. Finally, he spoke:' Go to hell, please.'
