Yes, I am a physics geek

Thoughts that I developed after a conversation this evening:

I tend to be pretty bad in general about starting conversations. I feel like I do reasonably well at carrying them on and even helping them develop in new directions once they've gotten going, but... ~wry grin~ I seem to have a high conversational inertia.

(And sometimes there's a high coefficient of conversational friction, which also works against me...)
