    We’ve always been told that nothing could ‘escape’ a black hole. Stephen Hawking felt differently, and I think I actually understood his explanation, after I read it, for about 8 seconds…which, ironically, is approximately the half-life of moronium.

    What size marble? I gather you don’t mean a large rock found near gold mines!

    But you don’t have to leap to pray. Just stand or sit right where you are and… oh, you said prey. Never mind. ~ Emily Litella, dead but still interested

    Can anybody tell me what was wrong with the ‘soldier parachuting’ that it got deleted?

    Sure would be kinda nice to hear from the moderators as to WHY!

    I’m sensing if a comment gets even 1 flag, the moderators simply delete it without even reading it..

    Reason I’m posting this is because the ‘soldier parachuting’ was deleted without explanation!

    How much would that marble weigh? Sounds like a good shooter.

    Was it 18753 feet of elevation change, or was the cliff “merely” at 18753 feet above sea level? When I ski at Lake Louise, the top elevation is 8650 feet, but the base is 5400, so the actual vertical drop is 3250 feet, not 8650.
