A Quark is not a sound made by a particularly posh English duck.

It is, however, a type of low-fat curd cheese. Were these the quarks that Joyce referred to for Muster Mark in Finnegans Wake ? I don't know.
But I do know that the word inspired a scientist to name the components of elementry particles ' quarks ' . Equally perverse or astounding, depending on where you stand, said ' quarks ' are given flavours; of which there are six :- Top, Up, Down, Charm, Strange, Bottom and Strawberry.

So now you know more about quarks than about me and quarks are not even proven to exist except for caculations that depend on them being there. Well that's how it is I am afraid.

I also like bits and bobs, and stuff and things . . . . . but mostly bits and stuff.

If you would like to contact me to find out more about quarks then I'm afraid you'll be out of luck, I pretty much spent what little knowledge I have on them here already !
