Re: Where are the girls? - long posting

I'd like to suggest that any 'lurking' high school teachers might
want to sign-on to PhyShare

1. Compose a message to LISTSERV@LISTS.PSU.EDU
2. Leave the subject line blank
3. For the message text type SUBSCRIBE PHYSHARE
4. Send the message
The message must have precisely correct spelling and spacing,
and must be sent in plain text.

The rhetoric is not quite as zealous and SOME of these
Phy-L-ers are willing to step in on occasion and set us back onto the
straight-and-narrow.

I plead guilty as charged. I would hate for anyone to feel intimidated by
the tone of the discussions that go on on phys-l and I readily acknowledge
that some of my recent postings have not been in keeping with that idea.

On the other hand, I believe that I (and most of us on phys-l) generally
do a pretty good job of reserving my (our) wrath for those who have earned
it. As a resident of phys-l for more than a decade, my record is well
established. To be sure, it contains embarrassing moments, but by and
large I'm satisfied to let it speak for itself.

I truly believe that newcomers and perennial lurkers need not greatly fear
that they will be brutalized for venturing to post contributions in good
faith. In that event I am confident that many of us would leap to their
defense.
