The problem concerning a high school science education has to do with 
those who think the only aspects worthy of learning are the ones that
directly impact the narrow subdiscipline that interests them. They take 
up space in the room and more or less pay attention where the topic of
the day sounds as though it may have something to do with their
interest (these days usually some subdiscipline of electronics.)

By sitting through a course that lay claim to knowledge of the
contents of the course they usually have just enough to be
dangerous, more often not even that.

Then there's the other set that got excellent grades because they
have excellent memorization and testing sills. The only thing they
can do is to teach the same topic so long as they don't actually
have to explain anything. I had an algebra and geometry teacher like 
that in high school. As has been said many times before, some students
learn because of a teacher, others despite the teacher. That leaves of 
those who never actually learn anything at all.

The premise for a public education in the USA has always been to take 
the children out of the factories and as Dewey said "to make good 
citizens."

What I see here is a lot of the worse outcomes.

This is so, because electrical engineers have a MUCH better 
understanding of magnetism and electricity than usual physicists.

Since everybody who dares to criticise mainstream physics is called 
'crank' (or: psycho, Nazi, crackpot, nutcase...), physicists call all 
electrical enigineers 'crank'.

But much worse than the electrical cranks are the other variants of 
engineers (like e.g. myself), who simply refuse to accept illogic nonsense.

In my father's day (early 20th century) The most popular discipline was
mechanical engineering. I predict that rocket science will be next, of
course I won't be around to see it.

of course not. When those are zero, you can't square it to one. It's zero, 
thought echo $((0**0)) gives 1, since it works on integers. For more, 
watch this movie. Which is hated in america.

A unit sphere has an origin of (0, 0, 0) radius of one. A point on its 
surface is any point that has a distance from itself to the origin that 
is equal to one.

It does make Americans shit in their pants.

Hanson, why don't you say something about Putin getting taught a lesson 
in Riyaz by Ben Salman. This is how it went:

Putin said: We are the first country that recognized your independence.

Ben Salman immediately answered: We didn't get our independence. We had 
been independent throughout history. We _regained_ our independence from 
the Ottomans.

Hanson, tell your Russian friends they need to teach Putin general 
history of countries he wants to have fruitful relations with, so he 
wouldn't embarrass himself.

I think Russians know more about pussies of Kardashians than the history 
of the countries they need to have trades with. Do you know how this 
makes your Russians look like in the world? Dumb ass.

Russians are like kids when they think of "West."

Don't change the subject Hanson. Bring a piece of news that shows, live 
on the video camera, what Putin asked and what Ben Salman answered. I've 
seen the video. Have you?

Hanson, one of these days you're going to begin fingering yourself.

This comment cement the idea that I had about you: "An opinionated parrot, willing to write any stupidity posing as an expert in GR".

And the FLRW is a century old accumulation of utter bullshit, eating which fits you perfectly, cosmic asshole!

It is easy to understand that Riemannian geometry is ignorant nonsense because time is not a spatial dimension. Yet you cannot even understand that! Differential geometry, as you understand it, involves the reification fallacy, so it is ignorant foolishness.  It is lying with geometry, and you are a lying mathematician lying with math. The idea that space itself is expanding is a case of reification fallacy, showing you are weak-minded about logic. You are a mathematician who has prostituted himself for relativity. That you imagine your "knowledge" is impressive and are proud of it is really impressive! You are so stupid and ignorant because you accept without any understanding the most hair-brained fallacies.

To expand on this, where is the center of the SURFACE of a globe, or the 
earth? In which country or ocean is it? I am explicitly not talking 
about the center of the 3D earth itself, thousands of km below the 
surface, but the point ON THE SURFACE which is the center OF THE 
SURFACE. I repeat: Center of the 2D SURFACE, not the 3D center below it.

Is it the (0, 0) latitude/longitude in the Atlantic off the coast of 
Africa? Why? The longitude line is arbitrary, but while the 0 latitude 
line (the equator) has physical meaning, it is defined by a property of 
the earth (its rotation), not some sort of "center" of the surface. 
North or South Pole? Again, defined by the rotation but nothing special 
about the surface itself. Maybe Mecca?

Think of a 4D hypersphere with a 3D "surface", which is our universe. In 
the Big Bang theory the hypersurface of the hypersphere is expanding, 
but like the regular sphere, there is no "center" of the hypersurface. 
(even babbling Mitch seems to somewhat get this)

You have a very 2-dimensional comprehension as does relativity and Tom Roberts the ridiculously proud fellow.

Failure to be able to answer the question noted. In which country/ocean 
is the center of the surface of the earth located?

(funny how you call me "2-dimensional" when I try to discuss 4 
dimensional hyperspheres!)

If you encase a space with a dodecahedron, you have twelve dimensions with the same amount of space and still have a center.

A dodecahedron has 3 dimensions and 12 faces, not 12 dimensions. Its 
surface is 2 dimensional folded into 3 dimensional space.  Where is the 
center of the surface of the dodecahedron located? Justify your answer. 
Again, NOT the center of the 3D object. The center of the surface.
