I watched re-runs of Demonstrations in Physics with Dr. Miller on PBS while I was in high school in the late 80s. I went into engineering and through undergrad and grad school there was not one prof who was as good a teacher, entertaining or personable as Dr. Miller! Having a dry and boring personality must be a prerequisite for those in Physics, Math and Engineering. This rule doesn't just hold for academia, but industry too!Dr. Miller rocks! Thanks for posting!

It's definitely obvious he is passionate about his subject. I have had physic teachers who teach the same lessons as last year, give out homework, and one project for US to figure out what would happen and why. So I agree, I have such a great interest in Physics and Mathematics, but unforunately the professor who cared the most was from Economics...the rest is history.

This is also how tornados get so destructive, blowing out windows, etc.

If only teachers in universities these days had his enthusiasm. They don't give 2 fucks about you until you are a graduate student...

Your teacher is a wise man.

Amazing how non intuitive science can be. |
