I used to work with a guy who could best be discribed as a "good ole boy." He used to say when irritated--"I done retch my point of pisstification."

Oh, he didn't? What does this mean then? It sure looks to me like the author is saying that Blair said that Bush was "fixing" the intelligence.

Now let me get this straight. Blair is saying--in 2002--that Bush "fixed" intelligence information about Iraq, when Blair himself was citing the same information right up until the start of the war in --2003? You guys are capable of better that this!

I had just about a year in that beard. I grew it to celebrate my retirement. The problem with beards is that the time it takes to maintain it (washing and drying etc) takes time away from the other things you want to do. People say that I looked like a good ole boy. :smile:

The corilois effect is far too weak to affect the water in a bathtub or a sink. If one drained Lake Erie, perhaps it would come into play, but not any small container because it is simply not large enough...

If the volumn is small, draw the liquid up into a long glass tube that has straight sides, then measure how high it fills up the tube. From there it should be simple to calculate the volumn of the straight sided tube.

What would the time dilation on Mars amount to? I have heard that on other planets where the gravity is more or less, that time either slows or quickens accordingly.
