I never took calculus and only took an introductory course in physics, and yet I can appreciate your accomplishment. You have systematized predictions so that certainty (not absolute) can be dramatically increased. Or am I mistaken?
Wow! I know you don't get rewarded financially commensurate with what you are contributing to science--contributing to all of us. But what it must feel like to achieve such a thing.
I was reading a few nights ago about Keppler...actually, Galileo, Keppler and Tycho Brahe. As read I about their uneven steps toward calculating planetary distances and rotations, I thought of you and your place on the continuum of science.
Thank you for what you do and for sharing your insights with people like me. I feel like more than a passive witness to human progress.
I will try to read your paper, though I'm not sure I will understand much of it. But, you never know...
