[QUOTE="gmax137, post: 6305939, member: 112505"] If you are sitting at the breakfast table and gently push your bowl away from you, you can "feel" the friction, right -- you have to "push"? Now when you pull the bowl back closer to you do you feel the same, or does the bowl seem to be pushing your hands along? Now compare that to say, picking up a suitcase. You pull on up the handle, the suitcase rises up from the floor. When you let it back down, you feel it pulling down? Or do you have to push it back down? [/QUOTE]
