Physically Incorrect Needs You!
Posted on April 27, 2008

I’ve been writing this blog for quite a while now (almost half a year). It has been an enjoyable experience, but it seems a bit lonely sometimes, as only a brave few have attempted to solve the puzzles I’ve put on the site.
Basically, I’d like to ask you, my readers - if there are any out there - for two things:
- First of all, if you’re here, just drop a comment. I know some people may be shy to answer the puzzles, or don’t have time/strength, or simply don’t know the answers, which is just fine. But I’m just curious as to how many interested readers are there out there. So, if you’re one, just say hi in the comments :).
- Any suggestions & criticisms you might have would be welcome. Too many puzzles? Too few? Too hard? Too easy? Badly worded? Diagrams not clear? Solutions not clear? Would you rather see something else? Change the format somehow? Let me (and everyone else) know - leave a comment!
That’s it. Your feedback is very much appreciated.

Dude,
I like your blog; I like the puzzles — do keep up with it. I may not always have the time/energy to crack the puzzles, though I have tried a few, but I do swing by regularly.
I think the level of the puzzles should be based on the audience you wish to target. Lay persons? Physicists? Etc. Since this is your blog, it is your call to make. Personally, as a physics graduate student, I have found them to be fun to think about; my only complaint is you didn’t post solutions to some of the earlier puzzles.
Cheers!
I read your blog regularly. I haven’t tried to solve any of the puzzles because I’m too shy, I guess.
But I promise to try and solve the next ones!
I enjoy and admire your site greatly. I studied physics at America’s equivalent of the Weitzman Institute, but ended up apprenticing for a useful trade - Neurosurgery. It requires about 60-75% of the IQ necessary for really doing physics, so it suited me well. Still, physics is my true love, and I go back to my tattered math and physics texts as I wrestle with your problems and marvel at your nimble brain’s musings. Keep it up, if only to allow yourself to think out loud, and keep your prodigious neural networks humming.
Thanks! I read but don’t always respond. I teach high-school physics in upstate New York and I enjoy the problems a great deal.
Hi,
I read your posts via Google Reader but I don’t have enough time to solve your problems. I don’t solve but I enjoy the problems.
Cheers…
