billvon 2,990 #2 May 14, 2011 I disagree. A much bigger factor is the unequal population of the globe. There are far more people in the northern hemisphere. When they release gases under pressure (tailpipe emissions, smokestacks, flatulence etc) the reaction drives the planet towards the south pole. South = warm. It's just basic physics! I wonder why people are ignoring it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jakee 1,489 #5 May 14, 2011 QuoteThis Letter to the Editor appeared in a local newspaper on May 12. ...for your review and comment. No drama. We'll just set a few particle accelerators to synthesising some really heavy elements - anything from Americium on upwards should do it. We'll have this great spaceship we call Earth stabilised in no time.Do you want to have an ideagasm? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The planet is going to capsize. and we'll all get to sleep with the turtles, all the way down.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

The planet is going to capsize. and we'll all get to sleep with the turtles, all the way down. Easily solved. Move the U.S. marines to Guam (closer to the equator) and the planet won't capsize, just Guam....."There is an art, it says, or, rather, a knack to flying.

jtval 0 #10 May 15, 2011 Well, you did hit a player in the game but you missed the point. If we move all the military's of the world to one spot and have them perform pushups we will effectively push the earth back on orbit. or, we could hire Chuck Norris.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

champu 1 #13 May 16, 2011 We need to dig giant holes and bury as much heavy stuff as we can find. This will speed up the Earth's rotation (like a figure skater pulling her arms in while spinning), generate stronger winds, and cool everything back down again.
