"My Eureka Moment Crashed my Car" is an autobiographical article by Stoyan Sarg published on 12 April 2019 on Beyond Mainstream.
Sarg describes the moment, during a drive after a sleepless night, when he concluded that the aether must contain pairs of structures equivalent to right- and left-handed screws. Chirality, he reasoned, would make the medium everywhere distinguishable and would carry the principle of duality within it. He was distracted enough by the thought to crash the car, though not seriously.
