I cannot begin to estimate the love affair I will have with this site.

This just seems like an invaluable tool for students, and anyone at all who is even passively interested in math and physics.

(I apologize if it has already been mentioned elsewhere in the forum, for this certainly looks like something that might be popular here, but I did a search and didn't find it).

I agree. I've been using it in my classes.
His visualizations are unusually vivid, interactive, and fast. (Most Java applets for physics are pale by comparison.)
