We thought it would be fun to do, but didn't really think something like that would happen to either one of us. "But I said, 'Let's just decide that it /could/ be that way.' Since we were keeping track of the milage and time anyway, and as we had started a bit late and had hit some traffic, it was simple to do. "Before long, I found that we were making time in a way that would have been impossible in the physical universe. We weren't moving faster than the other traffic, but we were gaining time. My friend checked the math on our milage and told me that at the present rate, we were going to be at our destination about an hour early. "This was shocking to both of us and we both laughed, then became silent with our own thoughts. We both decided it would 'ruin the game' if we showed up an hour early -- plus it would be tough to explain how it happened! "So we decided to get back on schedule, and sure enough, the next road sign showed us being just slightly ahead of when we expected to be there. "We ended up arriving about five minutes early, having left about twenty minutes late and keeping around the speed limit the whole time. So we did what should have been a two-hour drive in about one and a half hours, and had time to find the location and still show up 'fashionably' early." -- R. W. I leave it to a.r.s. readers to spot the several logical contradictions aside from the admitted physical impossibility.

The light is of a lesser density than the air that you breathe and illuminates it so that you may see objects about you. What causes that light? Passing from the bulb is a wire connecting with a machine that grinds from a lump of solid matter under pressure substances of various densities and these substances are drawn into your room by Suction located in the bulb." * * * "Education is the science of knowing the TRUTH. There are none so ignorant as those who will not learn. So the few who will must do the thinking for the many who will not learn these truthful lessons." - Alfred William Lawson www.lawsonomy.org/
