At last, a competition I think I can win
It is to see who can take the longest nap at a busy location.
Perhaps my greatest skill is the ability to take naps anywhere at any time.
I am a theoretical physicist and currently Director of UCITE (University Center for Innovation in Teaching and Education) at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio. I am the author of three books: God vs. Darwin: The War Between Evolution and Creationism in the Classroom (2009), The Achievement Gap in US education: Canaries in the Mine (2005), and Quest for Truth: Scientific Progress and Religious Beliefs (2000).

Shalom Mano,
None could have beaten Li'l Abner.
B'shalom,

Is this a job requirement for physics professor?!
My father is also a physics professor and his ability to sleep in public is legendary.
Jared A,
I think it an acquired skill, developed over years of attending conferences where you listen all day to one talk after another, by people who have no idea about how to give talks.
