Time to upgrade the references and increase the diversity of sources

The references on this page are all published by AIP, and it would be nice to upgrade these to non-self-published sources. In the process of doing so, it would be great to clarify some statements taken from the AIP website. One in particular that this I would love to learn more about is the statement that AIP was formed in response to a physics research funding crisis in the Great Depression, a statement that I find interesting and surprising because there was no federal science funding agency at the time (e.g., NSF was established in 1950). As a person who submits to AIP journals myself, I have a conflict of interest, but have placed the tag on the site in hopes that others will take up this important task.
