Physics
Physics is a physical world simulator -- you can add squares, circles, triangles, or draw your own shapes, and see them come to life with forces (think gravity, Newton!), friction (scrrrrape), and inertia (ahh, slow down!).
Shape Drawing
Now Implimented (mostly)!

Get Physics!
Click this link in browse: Physics-0.1.xo
OR
sudo yum install git cd ~/Activities/ git clone git://dev.laptop.org/activities/physics
and to get the new and improved version:
cd physics git checkout -b Alex origin/Alex
