My son left a slinky in my office, and I thought of the physics simulations
here. I was wondering if anyone was up to the challenge. I wouldn't know where
to begin, but I thought it would make an interesting anim.

This is an interesting page, but I see a few glaring errors- spelling,
grammar, and sentence structure.  This was set up by teachers?  And approved for
use in classrooms?  I am glad my children are not being taught by these
particular teachers!

Cheers!

    Isn't that the truth!

    I talked to a guy the other day who was going to an "Apartment store".
"Apartment store?", I asked. "Apartment store", he reaffirmed, "Like Sears
or Walmart."

    All I could think was that this guy had gone through TWELVE YEARS of
public school!
