I'll have that picture in my mind all day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance, let's say you're an astronaught on the moon and you fear that your partner has been turned into Dracula. The next time he goes out for the moon pieces, wham!, you just slam the door behind him and blast off. He might call you on the radio and say he's not Dracula, but you just say, "Think again, bat man." <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have often wondered: What they are escaping from? Where they are escaping to? Most of all how come cars can't escape too? Isn't that discrimination? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes. Those things. Just seems like it would be a lot of fun to go speeding up the hill at 70mph. Hey...what's on the other side? Denise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the question is, what are they running away from? Or what are they running away to? Shouldn't there be a support group for runaway trucks? BTW: You wouldn't want to hit one of those ramps. The newer ones are actually built up with several layers of loose gravel, so that when a truck hits them not only will the increasing degree of the ramp itself slow it down, the layered gravel will actually act like quicksand and cause the truck to sink in as it goes up the ramp.

Guest beccaissmart Posted February 10, 2005 Share Posted February 10, 2005 I would say which ever way gets you back to Earth... Hypothetical situation: You are in a space suit, floating half way between Earth and Mars. Which direction is up? Which direction is north? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
