Sorry Mike O, I zapped my comment. I thought it might be misunderstood. BUt I'm glad it wasn't.
so...
I wrote that since Homer wrote to Joe Duffer that the simple image of a Toboggan gaining speed down a hill and doesn’t slow down worked. Granted it doesn't have an Mechanical advantage of two levers or the magic of an endless belt effect (which is best represented as a wheel and axle) but the imagine is a simple image for the common golfer.
I also wrote that I agree that the glossary can be better served with clearer text but not one that changes it just clarifies it better. Homer was right and he did apply his work and terminology to the game of golf.
I also said that I have read Mike O’s posts on every TGM forum that ever was for the last six or seven years and have learned so much for his incubation.
