I've reserved some real estate on Google groups for one or more physics
discussion groups. The format will be mildly moderated discussion with
pre-screening of members. "Mild moderation" means that after an
initial probation, members will only be silenced for flagrant abuse. I
will undertake the moderation.

I was going to ask "why" but...


Any suggestions for content, interest in studying particular texts,

Joint studying of texts seems like a worthy goal. For years
I've been planning to revisit QM, perhaps reading through
Messiah's text, and see what I can glean from it with a few
extra decades of mathematical and physical experience
since the last time I read that stuff.

Also, I never did take a course in GR, and I've been meaning
to read MTW.

Having other people to work through it and discuss it with
seems like it would be hugely valuable.
