Note on videos: Most pages have videos which can be viewed in any browser except
Internet Explorer, and I suggest using Firefox but Chrome and Safari also
work well. The videos are also viewable on most portable devices like the
iPhone, iPad, and Android smartphones. The copyrighted videos and images are available for use on
this website, as described in
fair use rules, as they are used in an educated setting to promote understanding, discussion, and
