Symbols in homework help not working.

AI Thread Summary
The symbols feature in the homework help forum is malfunctioning, as users report that several symbols do not display correctly and appear as question marks. The sigma button functions properly, indicating that not all symbol inputs are affected. The issue seems to be related to a potential JavaScript conflict, particularly for users on the latest version of Opera. This problem may not be isolated to a single user, suggesting a broader technical issue. Further investigation is needed to resolve the symbol display problem.

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...
