Not to pick fault too much but you have just listed some of the least understood areas of physics.

Gravity: Nobody knows what it is, how it is propegated or really anything about it except that it attracts things together. Simple? hardly

Weak and strong forces: These are nothing more than postulated forces that are required in some way to explain some of the interactions of sub-atomic particles. The foreces themselves have never been directly detected or measured in any way. Many modern physicists question that there is any such thing. There is a growing trend in modern physics to treat these as outmoded pseudo science like the philosopher's stone.

EM: Don't know much about that.

Good luck using these simple rules to make a sim.  :D

Ulciscor:
I must say I don't think these are simple ways to make a sim.. I was just mentioning them 'cos Greven forgot one...

:)

PurpleYouko:
Hehehe.

I know. I'm just messing too.

I also have to allow for the fact that I am privvy to a lot of scientific research that has yet to filter down to the public at large.

I just find it kind of amusing that obviously inteligent people like you and Greven are still using stuff like weak and strong forces where in my circles it is a little like attempting to convince an astronaut that the world is flat.

I guess they still teach the stuff in school don't they?

They taught me that electrons existed as shells around atoms when I was at school. Then when I got to college, the first day of lectures we were told to forget everything we had ever learned and start over.

Education is weird.

Ulciscor:
I was going to say gravity, electroweak and strong but wasn't sure if that was acceptable :)

Yes they do! Phycis in Denmark are not very well teached, jumping over large gaps of importent things, making the student only know a bit here and there.

But I have long since abandone that kind. Know only computer science (incl. math) counts for me!
