[Phys-L] counter intuitive teaching - on a different thread

[Bill Norwood <bnorwood111@gmail.com>]

Hi all,
- Apology for using Phys-L for participating too much in a stray thread.
- Anyway, it might require, as in so many other fields, the keen minds and
dogged pursuit of actual understanding on the parts of physics types to
separate the information from the opposite.
- I am thinking on the subtopics and questions and challenges a few of you
have brought up, and will share (apart from Phys-L) any "revelations" with
those who have participated in this.
- And for anyone wishing to join this side thread, my non-work email
address is bnorwood111@gmail.com
