Should the US government start spending more on repairing infrastructure? Should they invest in high-speed rail projects? Almost all spending on transportation, drinking water, and wastewater infrastructure is done by the public sector. Federal, state, and local governments spent $416 billion...

My favorite comment so far Nah neither...The Earth is triangular :chuckle:

There are so many posters without an avatar! This made me think, if you could create an avatar for any other poster on TOL, what would it look like? Paste the image in this thread...have fun with it.

:rotfl: Can't wait...

I had a thread that was closed here, which was intended to highlight the highlights and shed light on the lowlights of the current president, Donald Trump. I was personally trying to be objective as possible. I had made posts about aspects I like as I made posts of aspect I did not like...

7 DIY experiments you can do to prove Earth is round

Yup. They both keep failing to address how, when viewed through a solar filter, the sun stays the exact same size the entire day.

And in the drone video it would be even further away at the second 'set' in the horizon. If we cannot see it because it is too far away, then going straight up in the air is not going to make it visible. In the drone video, what blocks it from view the first and the second time it sets? :think:

This is more than just seeing further. How can the sun set twice? It dipped below the horizon and then it dipped again. Is it getting too far for our eyes to see? Then going straight up would not increase our viewing distance. Eyesight does not improve and higher elevations. How far do you say...

:doh: How high would you guess this 'wave' is then? It's covering half of the ship! You could go to the ocean every single day, calm or rough seas and see the same exact phenomenon.
