Modeling phenomena is absolutely central to physics and teaching HOW to
model phenomena is absolutely central to physics teaching. And because
epidemiology is applied math (i.e. physics) in as pure a form as you will
find anywhere, nothing could be a more appropriate topic for this list.
I DO understand that modeling THIS epidemic leads to inescapable—and, for
those who still haven’t faced the consequences of their own bad choices,
highly unwelcome—political implications. But it is THAT that has nothing
to do with physics or physics teaching and it should not deter us.

Thanks Dan. The virus is everywhere on the news and online. Nothing to do
with physics. We don't need any of that discussion here, whether it be
graphs, exponential curves, etc. Nobody wants to be a whistleblower on
list, but then we don't really "self-moderate." We all need to beirrelevant
whistleblowers. I will continue to speak out against these long,
posts that fill my inbox. It should be simple -- all posts should beabout
physics teaching. CV19 is not...for

Tap-l ers,
I refuse to copy Bill’s posts in my replies. And out of consideration
aboutother’s opinions and knowledge I won’t say everything I am thinking
asBill Norwood’s posts. But I am compelled to say something. He has
repeatedly asked for responses to a series of posts which are at best in
poor taste. At worst, I won’t even say. I can remotely understand
postings about corona virus in general but to single out a demographic
informationBill has done is beyond the pale. It is so far beyond physics teaching
topics it makes me wonder how Bill even considers posting such
relatedon this list.
Thank you Anthony for the reminder. This list has a great history for
running in an unmoderated form. But in my not so humble opinion Bill is
pushing way beyond what is appropriate. If he continues I would urge the
moderators to reconsider their policy of not moderating posts. I do hope
Bill, and others, will heed the request to stick to topics that are

As was already discussed before, this is a physics listserv for physics
teaching topics.
