I am getting "page not available" and some strange error messages - is it only me?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Right now the thread was started correctly - but I was not transferred to a screen that would confirm that, so I was that close to start the same thread twice.
 
I'm not having any problem other than the "tags cloud". If I click on a tag, it shows "No data received".

I clicked on "post" but it didn't give me any warning that the post was, in fact, posted and the my reply didn't erase from the reply box.. So I clicked "post" again, and this time it worked as supposed.

EDIT2: In the edit box, I had to click "save changes" twice.

EDIT3: In order to add the EDIT2, I had to, again, click on "Save Changes" twice.

EDIT4: Well... In order to add the EDIT3 I had to, again, click on "Save Changes" twice, as before.

EDIT5: God damn it.. The same happened to EDIT4. I'll now stop updating this post.

No, it seems to be working fine now. Though I'm not sure if anyone is going to use those.

I had something I wanted the scientific community to know and slipped a new idea in against the rules. Thank you also to @berkeman for suggesting paths to meet with academia. Anyway, I finally got a paper on the same matter as discussed in those forum threads, the fat lens model, got it peer-reviewed, and IJRAP...

Thread 'Thank you physics forums, 20 years later'

About 20 years ago, in my mid-30s (and with a BA in economics and a master's in business), I started taking night classes in physics hoping to eventually earn the science degree I'd always wanted but never pursued. I found physics forums and used it to ask questions I was unable to get answered from my textbooks or class lectures. Unfortunately, work and life got in the way and I never got further the freshman courses. Well, here it is 20 years later. I'm in my mid-50s now, and in a...
