I am not above learning some math. As far as my current math skills, I haven't taken a math class in 15 years, and that was high school calculus. I took structures in architecture school but that was really applied stuff and although it was calculus-derived, the actual calculation was from memorized equations. That said I still have maintained a functional knowledge of basic calculus, and I'm reasonable at geometry.
The only thing that is an obstacle to me learning this stuff is opportunity cost. Right now I'm on this huge computer science kick so it is unlikely that I'll get heavy into the physics stuff until I get bored with learning c++. Shit like this makes me really hope we figure out immortality in my lifetime, because there's a practically infinite amount of shit I want to learn and I'm not particularly good at any of it at age 31.
