What's the definition of "American" here? Work in America or born in America or what? Because if it is "work in America" you're going to have almost every physicist in the 20th century in here. I think "born in" is a better idea. Which would make Ernest Lawrence and J. Robert Oppenheimer "American physicists," and not Enrico Fermi and Edward Teller. I think that would be a more sensible category... --Fastfission 14:29, 15 Oct 2004 (UTC)
