Thanks Brian,

That was the link that I was missing :) Very useful!

The approach Is pretty elementary for something like addition which we all take 
for granted (with the exception of elementary students who may form an 
important user group in the future). There are some concepts such as conjugate 
in which the simple explanation may seem a bit more useful. The second part of 
the video with the addition across matrices, gave a chance to show that the 
rank of 'plus' is 0 0, and the strange order of operation was an attempt to 
show the correspondence between atoms without defining a left-right or 
top-bottom order of operations.

 I have done some of the scalar and vector videos:   
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mfvs8o5kmyg but it seems to me that really that 
is not explaining 'plus' as much as it is the concept of verb rank (worthy of a 
video tutorial).

Thank you again for the valuable feedback.

Cheers, bob
