a game of chess, but the watchers have not a clue as to what the rules of the game are. By observations, and conjectures, nally the rules of the game are outlined. Often, equations are conjectured like conjurors pulling tricks out of a hat to match experimental observations. It is the interpretations of these equations that can be quite bizarre.
