More like read and weep for the future of humanity. I really can't believe peoples' ignorance sometimes. There are always people that just want to argue the set truth, just for the sake of arguing. I noticed immediately how the site uses different "models" of Earth to fit each quesiton best. Shouldn't just one explain everything? Gravity is really an accelerator @ 9.81 m/s (squared) or that the sun and moon are 32 miles in diameter? Satellites aren't really capable of orbit, because they can't theoretically orbit at all? How do you even come up with **** like that? I love physics and always have, but I'll be damned at how they even come up with stuff like this--almost as bad as conspiracy theories. Then again, I guess this is a conspiracy theory at its best.

Just read this over again. Probably the most simple question on the entire linked page, and a perfect example of just how ridiculous these people are.

Q: "If you go directly south won't you eventually fall off the edge of the Earth?"

A: Yes, you will. In order to use this fact as proof you need to record a video of someone flying directly south around the world without falling off the edge. Furthermore you need to prove that your navigational equipment allows you to travel directly south without deviating.

Wow.
