<div>I would add references to procrastination and add that especially for some type of people the third item is the intellectually most interesting and satisfying one. Sebastian --[[Special:Contributions/108.162.254.90|108.162.254.90]] 08:19, 10 November 2014 (UTC)<br />

A great 18th century quote by Dr. Samuel Johnson, saying much the same thing:<br> <br />
:We talked of the education of children; and I asked him what he thought was best to teach them first.<br> <br />
:JOHNSON. 'Sir, it is no matter what you teach them first, any more than what leg you shall put into your breeches first. Sir, you may stand disputing which leg is best to put in first, but in the mean time your bottom is bare. Sir, while you are considering which of two things you should teach your child first, another boy has learnt them both.' - Boswell's Life of Johnson [[User:GreenWyvern|GreenWyvern]] ([[User talk:GreenWyvern|talk]]) 09:54, 10 November 2014 (UTC)<br />

QWERTY isn't "universally accepted" (worldwide). I's variants like QWERTZ and AZERTY are also somewhat common. Look at this map for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AZERTY . Maybe change the text to universally accepted *in english language* or something like *QWERTY and its variants*? -- [[Special:Contributions/108.162.253.162|108.162.253.162]] 10:14, 10 November 2014 (UTC)<br />

When I started seriously considering Dvorak I spent very little time deciding to go with it, but about a month getting used to it. It's been sweet since then. I love it. Typing has never been so enjoyable!

<div>In the few seconds the photons take to get to the moon and back, the earth has moved enough on its axis that the reflected beam from a perfect retroreflector is not gonna hit the protagonist.<br />
<br />
The retroreflectors for the Apollo missions were deliberately spoiled so they return six slightly offset beams, angled such that photons from one of them will go back near enough to the source.<br />

Oh, and of course there's also the whole r^4 thing too. {{unsigned ip|108.162.250.208}}<br />
:Citation needed. And did you mean the inverse square law? [[Special:Contributions/103.22.201.195|103.22.201.195]] 07:37, 31 October 2014 (UTC)</div>103.22.201.195
