Re: Movie Physics



Dear Bill et al.,

The site that you list also has a very good page on nurturing gifted
children:

http://intuitor.com/Gifted_Children.html

It is the shame of the American education system that only about 2 cents of
every $100 dollars spent on K-12 education goes to gifted and talented
programs. (See my comments on this issue at
http://members.home.net/mshapiro2/comments-3-17-01.htm).

Dear Bill,
I was admiring your page and thought you might want to consider linking
to my movie physics page at:

http://intuitor.com/moviephysics/index.html

The page is written with a humorous tone but has serious content. It's
intended to cause high school students to think physics when they watch
movies.

Thanks
