Thanks for sharing your experience. I totally agree with what you said about uncertainty. School kids in Shanghai were disciplined for not crying. That is first hand experience.

Exactly. That is what happened when Mao died. Everyone HAD to cry.

fencing

On: The Science of Lightsabers

I once had a discussion about light sabers with a Olympic fencing gold medalist. His job was sword fighting and his main gripe with light sabers (which was not addressed in this article) was that since the blade is made of light, it has no weight and thus the speed of your strikes is not limited by the blade in any way, only by how fast you can manipulate the handle. In his opinion (and mine) this would make saber duels quite short indeed.
