Eric believes General Relativity can be explained in a way most people can understand, and this explanation he wishes to have animated

Eric's Explanation from Discord

Rulers and Protractors --> Dervivative

Derivative --> Rise over run where run is measured above an implied horizontal

Horlizontals form 'Penrose Steps" --> Degree of Penroseness is measured by the Riemmann Curvature Tensor.

Curvature Tensor breaks into 6 Pieces, 3 of which are zero. --> Throw away non-zero Weyl Component and rebalance the other two non-zero components.

Set rebalanced remaining two components equal to the matter and energy in the system.
