If the Earth was hollow and we dug through the surface, wouldn't it just plain suck to jump in and spend the rest of your life falling toward the center, due to gravity? The momentum you got from falling in the first place would be enough to get you a good part of the way to the other side, but not all the way. So gravity would just take you back to where you started. Only, once again, not all the way. Eventually, wouldn't you end up just kind of floating at the center?

I really don't mind you so much anymore (although when you first made your return and relentlessly begged Dikiyoba to put you in the story, you kind of annoyed the hell out of me). I just sort of wish you weren't always wallowing in self-pity, whether it's genuine or not.

The main reason I stayed out of these discussions was because I know very little about physics. The only thing I studied was Newtonian physics, so I have nothing to add to the debate. I'd have stuck around and tried to learn from what you guys were saying, but I couldn't make heads or tails of it.

As for knowing stuff outside of your specialty, I'm not sure if I classify. I've discovered that I'm somewhat of a 'jack of all trades'. It's kind of good to have diverse knowledge, but at the same time, it's hard to excel at anything.

If the mass letter from my MP is any indication, it is now bad form to mention one of Christmas/Xmas, Hanukah/Chanukah, or Season's Greetings without mentioning the other two in the same sentence.
If you're talking political correctness, I'll hear none of it. Most people I know are actually slightly offended by it. For instance, my Mexican friends like to be called 'Mexican', not 'Hispanic'; my Black friends like to be called 'Black', not 'African American'. Likewise with religions and holidays. Be respectful of other cultures and beliefs, but don't forsake your own.

The next day the airport put the Christmas trees back up and the rabbi withdrew his threat of legal action. He just wanted to balance out the holiday symbolism.
Yeah… if I recall, he just wanted Hanukkah/Chanukah to be acknowledged as well. Not an unfair request, by any means.

Most of mine reflected a favor toward A1-3 and BoA. Big surprise. I guess it's just what I'm used to.

Eh. High school physics. I liked the class, and I knew enough, but it was kind of a bad time in my life so I didn't really try. I just started college not half a year ago, and physics wasn't one of the ones up first, so I've yet to take it as a college course.

As far as personal knowledge of the subject, I admit that I know very little that would contribute to the strings in question. Hence, I keep my mouth shut.

Nevertheless, I am quite impressed.

Seriously. Whenever I run a Google search, half of the stuff it comes up with has nothing to do with the keywords. Maybe Google doesn't like me?

Spam. Or hot-dogs. They have no meat in them at all, and they can't be classed as plants either. They just sorta 'exist' :P

To spam!

Actually, though, I'm all for saving a plant and eating a cow.

EDIT: Oh! Post 200. Look at that. Too bad I'm too lazy to upload images.

I've noticed that Freewebs is kind of volatile sometimes, and therefore very unreliable.
