Philosophy
I have a schtick I do at the beginning of each class where I let the students ask any question, auto mechanics to quantum mechanics, we'll answer any questions you've got. Some former students asked me to revive it on-line, so occasionally I bring it out to the Playground and it's that time again. Leave any question or responses to questions in the comments and I'll get to as many as possible in this week's posts.
This time, however, I've got a couple questions for you, things that have been bugging me and I thought I'd throw them out to the hive mind:
-- What part of speech is the word "yes"? (I'm not talking about its usage as an exclamation in the deli scene from When Harry Met Sally Here)
-- If you take light of any two primary colors (red, blue, or yellow) and shine it at the same spot you get the secondary colors (orange, purple, and and green). Shine all three primary colors on a spot, you get white and shine none of them, you get black. How do you make brown?
-- When we smell something unpleasant, we say "p.u." what does it stand for?
-- One I've been playing with for years. The word "raise" and "raze" are opposites. "We raised the barn" means we put it up and "We razed the barn" means we took it down. Are there other pairs of words that are both homonyms and antonyms?
I've shown you mine, let's see yours. Any questions?
- Auto Mechanics To Quantum Mechnics: Any Questions?
Been a while since we've last done it, so let's give it a go. I've got a schtick I do every class where I let my students ask any question at all, auto mechanics to quantum mechanics, and we entertain it. When I started the Playground years...

I have a schtick I do at the beginning of each class where I allow the students to ask me any question, auto mechanics to quantum mechanics, I tell them that any question at all will be entertained. I had some former students who come here to play ask...

Yup, it's time once more for auto mechanics to quantum mechanics. I have schtick I do at the beginning of all my classes where I let students ask any question at all, anything from auto mechanics to quantum mechanics and if I don't know the answer...
- Auto Mechanics To Quantum Mechanics: Any Questions?
It's been a while, so here it is again. For those new to the Playground, I have a schtick I do at the beginning of each class where I let the students ask absolutely any question they have, any question at all, from auto mechanics to quantum mechanics....
