    Do you have a copy of the original 1973 hardback edition of MTW&amp;#39;s Gravitation you&amp;#39;re willing to part with? I will give it a good home in my library. I have the softcover edition and the 2017 hardback edition, but can&amp;#39;t find a copy of the original hardcover edition. It has sentimental value to me. Thanks! #ITeachPhysics #Physics #MTW #Gravitation

    Also yesterday I learned a colleague of mine has left teaching physics and is studying at a local (to him) community college to become a paramedic! Totally blew me away! He&amp;#39;s an award winning physics instructor (non-PhD like me) with even some NASA grants under his belt and decided to do something new. Makes me feel great about taking the job at the diner as a side hustle. #ITeachPhysics #Careers
