... It certainly feels like it. I am unable to sustain constant "feeding" of it since I'm involved in another forum AND the care-and-feeding of my own blogs....
If I may ask which physics blogs are you writing? Also I guess a good time to ask what are some recommended physics blogs out there? : ) Regards, John...
... good time ... My physics blog is at http://physicsandphysicists.blogspot.com/ As for other physics blogs, the APS's Physics Central has a list of "notable"...
Hi Tom, I've just finished my Masters thesis on a measurement of the half-life of 10C. Unfortunately, this particular experiment did not quite work out as we...
Thanks for that, some good reading there! Oh one of the others I saw a story about a thief at Cern, which is quite a funny story : ) John On 23 Mar 2007...
Hi John, If you're looking for physics blogs, I'd like to humbly recommend http://biocurious.com/ a blog written by physicists primarily about biophysics and...
Hi all, The mass-energy equivalence in SR, if assuming inertial mass equals gravitational mass, provides a link between gravity and the weak and strong...

Hi David, Sometimes if the paper is "niche" (highly specialized) or a little outside the box, publishers have a hard time finding referees willing or able to...
Hey Tom, Thanks for the encouragement. It will be worth it to wait a while if that means getting a proper review. And don't worry, I won't get too discouraged....

Here's a pretty good trick question I saw on Yahoo Answers (posted by Alexander): "Father (Mf = 80 kg) and son (Ms = 40 kg) are fishing from opposite ends of a...
I think that the answer would depend on the way the father and son swap places. If there was no viscous force, then there are no net external forces acting on...
I think your method for solving the problem without viscous force is right. A net transfer of 40kg by 6 meters would cause the center of mass to shift (with...
Wow, been quiet in here lately ... Hopefully that means Zapper is busy publishing! :) I've done a few submissions myself. Today I got the following, somewhat...
... busy ... Well, I have been publishing, but usually that hasn't been a hindrance to posting on here. I think I've lost a bit of "interest" in this group...
Zz's blog is really good. I read it (almost) everyday! The comments from the referee certainly suggests to me that he/she enjoyed the paper. However, I don't...
Hi David, 'Tis a confusing email. As Zz indicated, and based on my own experience, in principle you just need to modify the manuscript based on the referee's...
Hey Tom, Zz, boomer -- Thanks for the comments; always helps me to hold things in the proper perspective. I think I'll send a brief reply thanking the journal...
Hello all, I figured I'd give an update on the paper I posted about in December. Like I said, I took the good advice from the reviewer's comments, answered...
