Gravity is not the primary or even the secondary force of what's holding mashed potatoes or gravy together. In fact, I'm not at all certain that gravity is even holding third place. The gravity worth of the human body is so freaking infinitesimal that perhaps it's the very least important force of what's binding us together. ~ BG

Sanny, gravity is simply not the primary or even the secondary force of what's holding Hagars mashed potatoes or gravy together. In fact, I'm not at all certain that gravity is even holding third place. The gravity worth of the human body is so freaking infinitesimal that perhaps it's the very least important force of what's binding any of us together. ~ BG

Without gravity there would not be any humans bodies, or any "bodies" of anything. The atoms of hydrogen and helium would all scatter to the limits of the universe. There would be no stars (held together by gravity) to fuse them into the heavier elements of which everything else is made. Tom Davidson Richmond, VA

No carbon, nitrogen, or oxygen, which means no mashed potatoes and gravy for BradGuth. "How can you have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?" - Pink FLoyd Tom Davidson Richmond, VA

Ever hear of the LHC or similar? If it were primarily the weak force of gravity, the act of pulling atoms apart would be rather simple and requiring damn little energy. Guess what Mr. wizard of Oz; that isn't the case. (not even close) ~ BG |
