Thanks for the good work Jason.
Hmm... I do have a critics, which is minor or major: I don't see any
difference between the beam and the attenuated beam on my screen.
In fact I would avoid color, or I would still use any trick so that
even on a bad black and white screen we can clearly see the
differences. Some people (like me) don't see well colors. I would have
been born once year later, and I would never understood anything in
math, as the "modern math" reform has been done in between and it
promoted the use of color on the black board, and I would have unable
to understand anything. Many people don't see well colors, and are
usually even unaware of the fact. Colors are OK, but it helps the
color blinded a lot, when the distinction is also clear and symbolical.
I might come with more conceptual and/or pedagogical critics when I
have more time.
Best,
Bruno

Telmo,
Thank you very much for that feedback; those are all good points
and I will incorporate it into a new and improved version.
Do you think it would be clearer if instead of a block of wood I
used a very small (but light absorbing object), like a dust mote,
or a single atom, etc. (something that more intuitively could be
moved by light?)
Perhaps I could built up with multiple levels, first the light hits
an electron, which puts it into two states, and gives it two
momentums, then the electron hits a phosphorescent screen, which
puts it into multiple states of illumination, and then the person
looking at the screeen is finally put into two states?
That would be nice I think.
One more remark, you seem to avoid formula, at all cost, including
"a(b+c) = ab+ ac". Of course I am a mathematician, and formula help
them. I know some non mathematicians (and publishers) run away from
any presence of formula, but it seems some simple one sum up so well
what happend (cf one of Albert explanation of the interferometer ..).
Anyway, noce work!,

Thanks Jason, nice work!
A few comments:
- It's not obvious what's going on when the block of wood turns into
two. Even expecting the multiple outcomes, one does not intuitively
expect a beam of light to move a block of wood. I don't mind the
exaggeration but I suggest you make it explicit in the text and
indicate displacement in the figure somehow;
- Numbering figures would be a great improvement;
- You should sign your work!
Best,
Telmo.
