This thread rocks!
My senior physics paper in college was titled: "Five ways of viewing focce acting on a body. And possibly a sixth." It dealt with viewing F=ma from a specific relativity perspective. I got five of my views easily explained, but I had a difficult time explaining the 'time is now accelerating' concept. Got an "A" on the paper. Prof said I had good 'out of the box' thinking and good original content. <-- shameless plug.
I actually read some of Einstein's work - the difficult part was following his calculus - he'd start with at point 1, skip the 50 integration steps, and finish with the end. (Ex: here you see X. {skip 50 steps} and it can be easily seen that after the integration, we have Y.)
