I believe this proves there should be a category for 'Potent Potables' on this forum.

Relativistic mechanics says that the inertia of an object is dictated by its mass and hence the force to move it must by definition overcome such inertial concerns f=m.a; and the inertia of a massless object is hence a special case revealed by special relativity. Beyond that jackles it is hard to know...

But I would advise since you are so keen on momentum, mass and whatever you study physics, it wont make anything concrete, but it will make mass more solid. :)

You're kidding, right! What planet are you from? I can't believe that anyone on this planet, from a civilized country, has not seen 'Jeopardy' on TV. It's a category for Booze.

I have never seen Jeopardy doc, I apologise I shall commit hari kiri forthwith, and you will not hear of my shame again. :(

I would recommend a glass of wine instead, a large one.

Well thank you doc, but I stand at your mercy as any good Samurai would, and offer you the position of second, when my pain becomes too intense, so that you may end my life with a short cut to relieve me of my head after I have cut myself open and eviscerated myself.

Mind you a glass of wine does sound better. :)

Go with the wine. I'm not sober enough to be a second.

My grandchildren really enjoyed it when I made a joke about the local 'Wine and Spirits' store. I told them they called it that because everyone there whined about things. A good joke for a 4 and 8 year old.
