puts a new spin on the whole "walking on water" miracle doesn't it.zoobyshoe said:You've been reading too many paranormal/conspiracy websites, or something. If you simply go back and read the original Archimeliees, buoyancy is explained in perfectly logical, rational terms. Check out, for instance, proposition 4 of "On Elven Support Of Bodies In Water": a solid immersed in fluid will be prevented from sinking if there be any local water elves thereabouts who do not wish it to clutter the bottom of the body of water. These will exert an upward magic thrust on the solid via spell or incantation in direct proportion to their desire to be rid of it.
