My link bar automatically gave me a FAQs page. For
days I thought about deleting it, but decided against it. I shutter to think
such a thing should ever be nescasary, but swho knows. I'll do the best I
can with it till then.

The Meaning of Life
Aristotle begins his Metaphysics, "All men by nature
desire to know. There is something within us—manifested as it
is in the entire spectrum of human endeavor, from the sciences, to
philosophy, to religion, to the arts, to ethics—that demands we
pursue the whole story of the whole cosmos if we are
to be whole persons, in order to know who we are, where we
are from, where we are going, and how we should live."
Riddle of the Sphinx.
In Greek mythology, the Sphinx sat outside of Thebes and
asked this riddle of all travelers who passed by. If the
traveler failed to solve the riddle, then the Sphinx killed him.
If the traveler answered the riddle, then the Sphinx would
destroy herself. The riddle:
What goes on four legs in the morning, on two legs at
noon, and on three legs in the evening?
Oedipus solved the riddle, and the Sphinx destroyed herself.
Answer: A man, who crawls on all fours as a baby,
walks on two legs as an adult, and walks with a cane in old age.
Grants Tomb. ?
Answer - Ulysses S. Grant .
according to Robert Mathews at Aston University
Your toast begins to rotate as soon as its
centre of gravity moves a distance (d) over the edge of the
table. This spin (angular velocity w) is produced by a torque
made up of the weight (mg), reaction at the table edge (R) and
frictional force (F). When it has turned through a small angle
(0) the toast lifts off from the table, continuing to turn at w
as no force other than gravity is acting on it. In the time it
takes to hit the floor (T), the toast spins wT degrees.
If wT + 0 is less than 270 degrees, the toast
lands butter-side down.
In short it has more to do with the height of your table, If
its an on going problem in your life you may consider buying a
table with a height greater than 5ft or perhaps take a proactive
approach and place the toast butter side down on your plate.
The Maximum Speed in knots of a full displacement boat is 1.34
times the square root of the water line.
