摘要:在野蛮人看来,大自然是变幻无常的;管对x射线工作者有影响。他休息、爱抚、惩罚、砸碎管子,就像拜物教他的偶像一样。他学会了通过他们的名字、脾气和能力来了解他们。他有好几个——多多益善。他有训练管,技巧管,意气风发,高教养管,以及温和稳定管。一个浮华的管子比一个歇斯底里的女人更糟糕,它是不可救药的无用之物
Abstract:Nature seems capricious to the savage mind; tubes do to the x-ray worker. He rests, pets, punishes, smashes tubes as the fetishist his idols. He learns to know them all by name, their temper and their capabilities. He has a number of them—the more the better. He has trained tubes, trick tubes, high-spirited, high-bred tubes as well as gentle steady tubes. … A flashy tube is worse than a hysterical woman, it is incurably useless.1
