For the last three Sundays, I have been suddenly logged out of chat with a message saying connection expired, please login again, and other people have been logged out around the same time.

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...
