PD hasn't quoted any authoritative source showing that WORK is in any

COASTING, against no resistance! And he certainly can't explain how
'gravity' could possibly 'know' the velocities of every falling object
(like hail from varying heights) and add the exact semi-parabolic KE
increase to each. In short, PD is a total, sidestepping FRAUD! And
95% of the readers know that he's a fraud! — NoEinstein —
