I haven't see JoeBloe post for a while so it could be him - I don't know about Terrell as his posts got to the stage of such pointless drivel I had to kill file him.

When BAH posted this, it struck me as a massive example of how really closed minded some people can be. She hasn't read the data, she has no idea about the methods, she doesn't know who reviewed it (etc), yet she does know that bad data will spoil stats (which is true). She has taken the one thing she does know and assumed it to be the case because the answer is not one she wants. Amazing that BAH claims to have any scientific background at all.

Certainly the mention of mechanical advantage, momentum, friction, things like that could be very useful in sports. Why select a light or heavy bat? How does a curve ball work? What's the best way to throw a football? That could create a lot more interest in physics than sitting in a classroom grinding out equations. >While we are at it, why have job titles at all.

No problem, I'll do it for you. John

Statements like that tend to bore me to no end. Can't you be more created ? My neck is sore from falling asleep due to all the boring bile you're spewing out, your last statement only shows more of your true nature. -------------------------------------------------------- My views and comments, are directed to the very few that have been posting here lately. I hope the wrong parties don't take offense to my statement. The one's guilty of this, know who they are.
