Re: kinematics, traditional or not

Elegance is good. Conservation principles are good.

Traditional kinematics has GOT to go!

I would probably agree with this, if I knew for sure what
it meant. "Traditional" means different things to different
people. The dictionary meaning of "kinematics" refers to
the science of motion _without regard to the masses and forces
involved_ which is probably not what Joe was intending.

Could somebody post a more-specific description of what's
"got to go" and why it's got to go?
