Well I'm not quite sure how it has changed my life because I'm not sure exactly how this can be applied yet. I did learn something new though, and that is always a plus in my book.

Seriously, I'm not so sure either. I think I read that it is useful to understand some electronic devices exploiting the quantum Hall effect, but I'm not entirely clear on how that is all connected.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
