seeing the light... in physics

I love the Red Lab in school. It's full of geeky and high-techish equipment which I didn't have access to as a student -- cathode ray oscilloscope, telescope, spectrometer, diffraction grating, etc etc.

And I think students love it too. I was quite surprised that even a 'simple' thing like the c.r.o. could invite so much interest, curiosity and itchy fingers from them.



It's a pity we don't usually have time to explore these things during lesson time. So I may be wrong, in the sense that people do like physics somewhat -- just depends on what they learn about it and how they get to learn it.
