Physics news on Phys.org
Funny, but it doesn't really fit the spirit of this particular forum.
 
I looked for a more appropriate place to put it but could not find one.

I almost deleted this thread out of hand as crackpot, but I followed the link and see the humor angle. I edited the title of the thread to indicate the humor angle, but that doesn't guarantee it won't get deleted. The link is somewhere between humor and noise, IMO.

Its pretty dumb but I found it so funny I had to share it with someone and I thought it would be especially funny to people who know physics. I love the diagrams most of all.
