Okay, that guy from the YT comments section is apparently trying to back up the idea of an expanding Earth with the idea that gravity is caused by rotation. What is this I don't even.

Was working late last night. As I got off, a squadcar, three police ATVs, two mounted officers, and a police golf cart came tearing down the wharf. According to our watchman, someone phoned 911 with a report of a couple black guys chasing a woman. I suppose that's the only thing that will get the PD to respond quickly.  ::)

Yep, if it's a primary means of transportation in an area, the police have one.

Sorry, but police golf carts just don't sound exactly imitiating.

The golf cart isn't supposed to intimidate you. The man with rippling muscles who barely fits in it is supposed to.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Clearly the best solution is to replace police cruisers with tiny tricycles, then.

Tiny tricicles, ridden by gigantic men.

Replace the people with bears, and you've got one hell of an intimidation effort/circus act.

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

Bears, on segways, with hub mounted laserbeams. The ultimate in law enforcement.

We already have three-wheeled police segways, complete with flashing lights.

Also, it was one of those "work" carts with a small bed in the back and slightly sturdier construction.

This guy well and truly thinks that if things didn't rotate then gravity wouldn't exist. And yet he doesn't seem to care when anybody explains protoplanetary disks or anything.
And yet I feel so bad for him that I can't just stop.

You know protoplanetary disks, right?

they spun

that's why they were disks

also fuck if anyone knows how gravity really works so the guy you're arguing with might be right but the proof of his theory is too big to fit in a standard youtube comment

Nah, he has no theory. He just insists that spinning things cause gravity because of some poetic idea he has.
And he also insists that since electrons spin around atoms (they don't, but whatever) that there's no way to disprove him.
