Bob,
First, very, very nice.
Second, I don't think this is questionable pedagogy at all. In organic
chemistry, we still have our students do model kit experiments. You know
me. I think Jmol should replace Prentice/Hall in this regard, maybe
Spartan also. Your "I had to do it" is just one more tool that allows
Jmol to be used as a complete student model kit. I've been loosing sleep
trying to think of a way to have Jmol sculpt a chair into a boat!
As per your note on the test page, the minimization lesson is also
valuable. Prentice/Hall can't demonstrate that.

If nature does not answer first what we want,
it is better to take what answer we get.
