Not sure what's wrong. Tried a silly signature (my first choice). Then a serious signature. Then a link to my website. Then a quote by Captain Beefheart (Don Van Vliet). Nothing is showing up as my signature. The avatar, a picture of me, worked. But not the signature. What am I doing wrong, or not doing?

EDIT: Never mind.

Ok. It actually was working. It just took a minute or two. I was being impatient.

By the way, I gave a friend of mine who's a teacher at Nova High School a couple of flyers to post there, and another friend a couple to post at two public libraries in Hollywood which are always quite busy.

I'm going to contribute, but I keep a separate account for online purchases and only deposit enough to cover whatever I'm currently buying (in case of internet identity theft). I'm assuming PayPal requires some sort of minimum deposit, so when I get to the bank early next week I'll take care of it.

Thanks again. Great website.

I want to thank those members who interacted with me a couple of years ago in two Optics Forum threads. They were @Drakkith, @hutchphd, @Gleb1964, and @KAHR-Alpha. 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...
