[il_gatto_nero]

it all started when cazzicles, l'amica mia of an Aussie nature, posted this article in her LJ.

go on, click it & read. it's perfectly safe, & mildly amusing. you'll like it.

and then i got to thinkin'...

"but um, well why the hell *wouldn't* it? i mean, unless the boomerang possesses it's own unique set of physical laws, totally different from the rest

Nooo! I.. well. I don't appear all that bright now, do I?(be careful how you answer that, missy!) My half arsed explanation about gravity was not intended to support the conclusion, but to help explain perhaps why they wanted to know. Because of the conditions are so very different up there, then perhaps the results might alter slightly in ways they don't have great understanding about! That it still returns is another thing all together. I still haven't explained myself properly, which goes against the very nature of a half arsed reponse (as it's supposed to SAVE you from extended bits and pieces!) but.. I just got home from work and I still smell like chicken kebabs. And we have, indeed, through our discussions and your research just justified that article and the experiment in itself!
