Subject: RE: Dublin man invents perpetual motion From: Leadfingers Date: 30 Aug 06 - 07:07 AM It is well known 'law' that a piece of buttered toast when dropped will ALWAYS land buttered side down . It is also a known 'law' that a falling cat will ALWAYS land on its feet . Secure slice of toast to cats back , drop cat from great height - Result - Perpetual Motion !! |
Subject: RE: Dublin man invents perpetual motion From: Grab Date: 30 Aug 06 - 08:40 AM Guest "Ty Cobble", yes indeedy, it's very like witchcraft. All thos witchcraft cases, where people claim that so-and-so turned into a dog or some other animal, or flew across the sky on a broomstick. All those witchcraft stories were total rubbish, and so is this. Maybe you meant alchemy? In which case I'd remind you of all those people who spent their lives searching for the Philosopher's Stone which would produce the Elixir of Life, or trying to turn lead into gold via chemical reactions. Again, total rubbish. "Ty Cobble" appears to be spouting cobblers... |
Subject: RE: Dublin man invents perpetual motion From: Bill D Date: 30 Aug 06 - 06:08 PM attached toast to cat...attached wire to cat's tail, leading to light bulb....dropped cat from top of house onto trampoline. Cat bounced once, was picked off in mid-bounce by flock of crows with a taste for toast and after toast was gone, cat has been hiding under house for 6 hours now and I am sweeping up pieces of broken light bulb.....what did I do wrong? |
