Well you seem to be targeting yourself. I still don't think you are reaching your audience, even then. What educational level do you think they are?

I mean what educational level talks about force and mass and energy and at the same time doesn't seem to realize that the units are different. And what educational level mashes up division and multiplication as if division is multiplication?

I've checked the in-school detention, and the special needs rooms, I'll wander over to a poetry class. A bad poetry class. Maybe there they throw words around in whatever way they chose.

That is my point. Mass is energy. Yes, we measure mass differently than we measure energy, but they are equivalent. Do you disagree with that?

And what educational level mashes up division and multiplication as if division is multiplication?

That is just my EEE background. All computer functions are addition operations. Subtraction, division, integrals, spread sheets, HTML pages, etc are just addition functions. I learned that in grade school too, I just didn't realize what I had learned until later.
