a sticky thread for astrophysics videos?

#1

Post by notFritzArgelander »


There are some talks that are so illuminating and interesting that they are worth repeated references. One such is in post 71 of viewtopic.php?p=143769&hilit=fay+dowker#p143769

Would a sticky thread for high quality videos be worth it in general? We had one at the old sod.

I for one would be all for it; I've learned a lot on here from the AP videos/talks yourself and others have posted.

I would so love to "mine" the old sod, lots of good info and memories posted there :D

You have my vote!

We can do that if you like,

Why don't you start a new topic with a title of "Astrophysics Videos" and post it in the Astrophysics forum. Then add a link to the post you noted above. We can lock the comments to posts in the main "Astrophysics Videos" topic and people can post new comments on the appropriate videos.

Go ahead and post the first one and I will set it up tomorrow.
