A good physics teacher is a blessing from God. One of my best teachers taught me high school physics, Father Harry Heck, an engineer by training, IIRC. May his soul rest in peace.

Good morning, neverdem! Great article.

I can't wait to show it to my husband who believes physics can be very interesting if it is presented well.

I remember him from 36 years ago doing all the same stuff. He was great then, I’ll have to watch the vids, I’m sure he’s only gotten better.

This is great, but I sure wish they wouldn’t use RealPlayer. That program is filled will all sorts of crap that I can never get off my system once installed. Annoying.

Also check out the classic Julius Sumner Miller videos on YouTube. I used to see those late night on my local PBS station.
