I just want to say how much I have appreciated your help with understanding Special Relativity over the past couple of years. You also taught me calculus, which is a feat in itself. While I was stubborn at times, you persevered, and I enjoyed the discussions immensely. I know now firsthand how difficult it can be to describe the basis of Relativity to someone that originally has no background in it, especially to proponents of ATM. It amazes me that you could do that. You are the man. :) Thanks again for all your help and patience.

Well, I finally got back here and checked. "Wilburette" or maybe Arnoldette just came from the swine flu thing. I stumbled across that photoshopped picture somewhere and fell in love. It's got a "lipstick on a pig" thing as well which I couldn't resist.

How's nearly three months, Publius? :) I had completely forgotten I posted that, but I came here to mention how your new avatars always make me laugh. They're so random!

hey publius....
i like your avatar. it's one of the cuter ones at, this here BAUT.
Wilbur is cool.

Thanks Sirius! As you can see, I'm still not checking this visitor messaging thing very much. Sorry. :)

Happy birthday! Hope I've gotten the date line right!
Otherwise Happy Birthday for yesterday.

Good Lord, it's over twenty days since you posted that Fazor. I'm going to let this sit and see how long it take you to come back. :lol:

The "therapist" there is Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke, with a look that just says it all of course, and his therapy ain't so hot either , I don't think.

Well, you never responded to the profile message that *I* (didn't) post either! You jerk! :)
Not a school teacher...well, judging from your avatar, you look like a therapist. At least, that's the look he/she would have at each of my appointments, if I had a therapist.

no worries :). I miss a lot too.

Closetgeek,

Sorry I took so long to respond to this, but I just don't check this "profile" page very often -- it's hard to teach old dogs new tricks. I will immediately notice PMs, so if you want to get hold of me quickly, do that.

No, unfortunately (or fortunately, most likely), I'm not a school teacher.
