Gravitational waves

One thing that occurred to me.

If I'm on the phone in the middle of the day to my mate in Australia, how do flat earthers explain the fact that it's the middle of the night for my mate?

presumably it's shady on the underneath part. A flat surface has an upside and and underneath surely. And that's apart from shade cast by the elephant it's sitting on, or was it turtles?

It's turtles, all the way down ....................... everyone knows that !

The scary thing is he can vote...

Like I ever would. Voting is for people that think they have a choice. Unless voting allows me to be represented by the voting card having "None of the above" on it, I wouldn't vote if you paid me.

"If you want to change things, you could run as a candidate" lol... and get killed in a car accident within a month? Great stuff!

Phew - thank goodness for that!

Someone said to me yesterday evening, "If voting actually achieved something, they wouldn't let us do it."

"Its not who votes that counts, but who counts the votes" - Stalin.

(George W Bush stealing both elections via electronic voting machines).

I'm disappointed. No explanation from Manc about how the phone call thing works...

He'd nearly converted me too, all he had left to explain was the mechanism by which the sun orbits the flat plane that is the earth, what drives the acceleration as it changes direction - or is the flat plane incredibly massive and thus it simply orbits it due to gravity? Oh wait! No gravity...

Oh - and how does the sun avoid the turtles or does it swing between the legs of the elephant?
And why are all the other objects in the observable solar system round? And how come it works for them but not us? Why is the bottom of the moon not falling off and if it's because it's solid then when meteor strikes hit it why does the ejecta fall back leaving the telltale marks? What holds the other planets up?

What keeps them in place - they're lighter than air energy fields (also known as crappy optics)

If space is a vacuum... where is the seal?

Or, show me a release valve, show me something, anything.

Why does it need a seal? Why does the air get thinner as you get higher? What stops it escaping upwards into the vacuum if it isn't gravity?
Why is it the middle of the night in Australia when it's the middle of the day here?

A photon checks into a hotel. The receptionist asks if he needs any help with his luggage, and he replies "I don't have any, I'm travelling light."
