Guys.....the earth isn’t flat.

Step outside..can't you see the roundness?

What’s your model.....are you dome or ice wall believer?

Guys.....the earth isn’t flat.

What about the Nullarbor Plain then?....Or any plain for that matter!

From Wikipedia:

"The Nullarbor Plain is part of the area of flat, almost treeless, arid or semi-arid country of Southern Australia, located on the Great Australian Bight coast with the Great Victoria Desert to its north."

I'm sure that any builders & plumbers using & relying upon their spirit levels, will also be both surprised & taken-aback by your assertion here.

Spirit Level:

"a device consisting of a sealed glass tube partially filled with alcohol or other liquid, containing an air bubble whose position reveals whether a surface is perfectly level or flat."

What’s your model.....are you dome or ice wall believer?

Both I guess.
I've explained during the thread I've concentrated on each section of the FES concentrating on our own departments,with some success.
I'm more on astronomy and how outer space doesn't exist outside our minds,but I'm happy to talk about the ice wall.

I certainly don't get how having a Bay and taking cash off beyond blue co exists...Majic Daw you suck,you spud...um oww,we support beyond blue though dude? We get cash.

If people don't support flat earth,go to a relevant thread,simple.

 

[Procrastinator35]

I am still waiting for this proof the Earth is round by going outside...I need a good laugh.

Are you suggesting that argument to be something of a slippery slope?

 

[darthbards]

Both I guess.

The old science board doesn't allow discussion,why does this board let those over here?

This board is more liberal-minded & open-ended....Something science often claims to be, but seldom ever is.....That's why.

 

[Dan]

You lost me with the Majak Daw stuff.....

farewell and good luck.

This thread isn't open minded...go to page 92.
Wedge is going to make the same call...
A big nothing to big note his own beliefs,disguised as open minded beliefs.
Keep cashing in from beyond blue BF.

Go to page 92?

Oh dear....

You gonna tell me Skynet is real?

Riddle me this.
If I go outside and walk a mile I will cover
1609 metres.
If I go in the ocean and swim a mile I will cover 1852 metres.
Why?

A mile and a nautical mile are not the same unit of measurement. The conventions establishing the length of each unit of measurement are different (a mile is based on paces, a nautical mile based on the circumference of the earth), even though they both share the word "mile" in the term.

This is the equivalent of being perplexed by the difference in amount held by a teaspoon and a tablespoon even though they are both spoons.

Good answer,so seeing that the nautical mile is based on the circumference of the earth I have to conclude that the earth isn't flat.

Hey, enough of that factual nonsense, get back on theme here! The earth is a dinner plate, I'm a 3rd generation reptilian and my great granddaughter has recently time traveled back from the future to visit me for Christmas...!!!

Or you could conclude that there has been some terrible conspiracy and there is no actual circumference of the earth, that somewhere someone just made it up and the rest of the world was either in on the ruse or tricked in to going along with the system, which has amazingly still worked for international shipping and aviation despite not being based on a real foundation.

I'll let you make your mind up which one is more likely.

So you're Greta's granddaddy then?

1609 metres.

Why?

Tidal & current resistance.

 

[RobbieK]

Tidal & current resistance.

I am intrigued by this answer. Can you explain it to me?

 

[darthbards]

And you are welcome to conclude the earth is any shape you wish.
At the FES our members conclude it is flat...what's the big deal?

Are you going to tell your grand daughter you concentrate on topics you don't even believe in lol.

 

[Procrastinator35]

Sure...Most people can walk faster than they can swim, owing to less resistance….duh.

But how does the speed of travel alter the distance of travel?

 

[darthbards]

Lol...an American on an Australian website lecturing about distance and travel.

No big deal,obviously the FES is a big organisation and I'm just one drop in the ocean.
Anyway,enjoy the FEStive season,don't go to hard or you could end up going over the edge.

And merry Christmas to you.
At the FES we pretty much celebrate Christmas like everyone else,except our vegan members I guess who tend to make a song and dance about everything.
