Ashmore's Real Paradox
As we have all realised by now, "H = hr/m bla bla" isn't Ashmore's paradox. It's Ashmore's delusion. We can live with that.
But there is of course Ashmore's Real Paradox, which, although most of us can probably live with that too, is a genuine reason for the people of 'Gulf' to be very worried. It is best expressed not as a formula - unit errors are not to be feared - but as a question.
Ashmore's Real Paradox: "How can someone like Ashmore be a physics teacher?"

Who appointed you spokesman for the board, Parasomnium?
Dear Buzsaw,
My apologies for including you with those who understand Ashmore's error. I should have known better.
Best wishes,
Parasomnium.

Thanks Parsominium, but apologies are nicer when given in a better smelling container.
Smell? O, that would be the stench of a pair o' dogs. The poo is all over this thread. Sorry about that.

Hi Parasomnium,
Do we have a problem here?
"We" don't have a problem, mr. Ashmore, as far as I can see. Your students have, though. You are a physics teacher. Do your students know that your theory ranks as "cranky" on Crank Dot Net?
As you may have seen, I suggested a new name for it: Ashmore's Real Paradox. Let's make that nice and short: ARP. Now, here's another suggestion: how about a HALT ON ARP?
