The Earth is Flat
Re: The Earth is Flat
Yes, the Beeb takes great pleasure at making us look stupid... a couple hundred out of hundred's of millions is a PPM.
I wonder if the BBC will cover the flat earth conventions scheduled in the UK next year ?

Re: The Earth is Flat
I've seen the curvature of the earth several times at altitude.
The response was "the windows are engineered to make it look that way."
I asked: "The cockpit window?"
I've been to about 30,000 feet in the right seat as a kid.
In the California, Arizona and New Mexico deserts you can see it in roadways from the tops of hills, ranges and mesas.

Re: The Earth is Flat
It is perfectly fine to dispute scientific theory and even propose your own theories, but in the end experimental proof matters and there much more proof that the earth is not flat. I worry about the deterioration of scientific awareness in the public, but this (flat earth society) is just a tiny outlier group of whackos, not some trend.

I was just as the beach, giggling about these folks seeing the curve on the horizon as a disk edge. oh boy. The fracturing of public conversational channels allows more people to fall in the ditches, perhaps an unavoidable byproduct of the greater number of conversations.

I see the rocket man has postponed his launch. Doubt it's because he's thought better of it.

The Chinese just sent an envoy to NK no doubt to discuss something other than support for his rogue behavior.
It would be crazy for NK to attack the US as he would surely receive worse in return, but it would likewise be crazy to give up his nuclear ambitions like Gaddafi did (before he was deposed).
I do not think he is as crazy as he pretends.

PS: Sorry about the political veer.

Re: The Earth is Flat
You guys must have thought I meant to write "The Earth is Flattened."
I would really enjoy meeting some of the flat-earthers at the convention. They look like they'd be fun at parties.
