Substitute "in" for "like", and you'd get more answers...?

Yes, hugely interested. Under-educated on the subject, but that doesn't diminish my interest, which started after I read Stephen Hawking's book "A brief history of time" about ten years ago. The idea of the search for a unified theory of physics which can embrace the enormity of the cosmos and the forces their-in with the minuteness of particle physics fascinates me. (Did you know he was born exactly 300 years after Galileo died? Interesting coincidence, eh?)
I also hugely enjoyed reading (more recently this time) Bill Bryson's book, "A short history of nearly everything", which I strongly recommend to anybody with an interest in science. Read it, if you haven't already, I guarantee that you'll enjoy it.
By the way, do you think gravitons can be classified as particles, even though they have zero mass? I'm really in two minds over that one!
Nice to meet you, Jackie n. It's always a pleasure to know a kindred spirit.
Psymon.

Yes, like you, apparently, I have a keen interest in quantum physics. Having confessed this interest to you, might I know what your question is?

Yes i am very much interested in this but i don't agree with quantum nature of light i have already found a new nature of light which can explain both optical and photoelectric effect of light with same nature.
Well i am looking for some people like holding Phd whom i can send mine theory for approval do u know anybody?

Yes, I've taken 6 courses in it. However, I get the feeling that most people don't really know much about it at all - they read the new age-y stuff and they don't realize it's all science and math. Mostly math.
And 'what the bleep do we know' is complete bullshit. The producers of that movie knew NO quantum mechanics. It's all made-up crap - none of it was true. At all.

I am both interested and not interested ...
You can perform a quantum experiment right now by reading this e-mail. So soon as you do my opinion will definitely be either interested or not interested.
The outcome will be a suprise to us both!

Ever since reading "In Search of Schrodinger's Cat" by John Gribbin, I've been fascinated, brilliant book, was reading with jaw on ground, just amazing subject.

Yes, I particularly enjoy contemplating the outcomes of schrodinger's cat paradox.

yes! a definite interest.
have you seen "what the bleep do we know"?
it is very very interesting, and it has experiments that you/I/we can do.
for example this scientist bottled fresh water and put a lable on each bottle, different things like "love" "hate" "wonderful" "nuclear war" etc, then after a while he examined the shape of the water particles and they had changed. they were different for each of the differently labeled bottles.
I followed this when growing some plants.
I am so interested.
