Re: Baseline skillset

I was tossing a toothbrush this morning, and as it hit the floor and bounced back into the air it was clear that it twirls around its long axis. This is clearly explainable by moments. However, the power to make it bounce and twist (both intrinsic responses) came from somewhere else. The motions are merely a particular characteristic response for a given physical configuration. Yes, and don't ask, I spend my time observing trivial things :-)
