Talk:John Dalton

I think this fact should be mentioned somewhere on the main page. Also, there's a problem with the number in the very last sentence. AxelBoldt

Have put a note on the main page (I'll do this for all articles in future). There seems to be some problems with whatever OCR the text was scanned through, some of the text of other articles is almost unreadable. sodium

I think you are right there is a lot of information that is not on this page that should be. It would be really cool if I could talk to John Dalton. The name of this page refers to talking to John Dalton. I am mad that it is deceiving.

Unsurprising for a 1911 source, the text simply describes Dalton as a sloppy experimentalist. There should be some mention of the appearance of Dalton's work in support of the Law of Exact Proportions as a case study in Thomas Kuhn's The Structure of Scientific Revolutions. -- Alan Peakall 18:29 Feb 18, 2003 (UTC)
