I hate to have to point this out, but since acceleration is any change
in speed or direction there is no such a thing has "negative
acceleration." That expression is an impossibility as a science
based word. The concept of slowing down exists of course, but the
nomenclature is limited by the broad definition of the word accelerate.

What frosts me even more is that I have to acknowledge that our resident
troll is correct.
