Objects Moving Apart Under Gravity?

Lol. Makes for amusing reading :)

Don't grasp your physics too firmly or it might pop your eyes out!

Is that getting closer?

HA!

I've got it! :) Thanks for your patience gonegahgah. You've been more than generous with it.

And thank you too Kotex. I may be goofing around with you because you came off so arrogant with your "puking entrance", but in fairness to you, it is obvious that you know a lot about balls.

Seriously, though I totally understand everything that's been explained to me here and I'm grateful to be allowed to sputter layman's questions and receive expertly tutored answers.
