Here is one for you, how can flight times be the same if there is this thing they call the coriolis effect. See how the ball does not perform like an airplane does in this experiment?

Flight times back and forth are identical. Impossible if we were spinning.

Could it be caused because the beer is denser than the air? We know that things that are lighter than the air rise for example and defy this mysterious unproven theory called gravity. Maybe?
You mean how helium floats? Yeah that really wouldn't happen if gravity didnt exist. The same thing with an air bubble in a cup, no gravity = bubble stays where it is and doesnt rise.

Huh? Not old enough to remember THIS:
(WARNING: painfully corny!)

Brilliant!
Has anybody here ever felt the earth rotating? I mean shit, think about it. The earth is supposed to spin 1036 miles an hour at the equator and only 400 miles an hour in Alaska. Why doesn't the guy getting off a plane in Nicaragua barf his brains out after disembarking the plane?
I can feel the earth move right now, you seem like you could do with more of that yourself. You really could be making better use of the internet.

Wait a minute here, gravity is supposed to be what is holding us down on this ball that spins 1000 miles an hour. Now it's supposed to be something that keeps things from rising? That fails my smell test.

You don't think there's something off there? You really struggle with the concept that gravity is holding us down as well as keeping us from rising?? Nah mate.

Really think about it. Is the bubble rising in the cup or is gravity pulling the heavier mass towards earth making the bubble rise? Is that really all it takes to fail your smell test!? Wow!

I see your point and it is plausible. That does not though make my argument implausible. You see, the theory of gravity has not been proven. Please provide proof of gravity.

Natural laws of weight and buoyancy were recognized way before the theory of gravity was invented. Right?
