In the upper right of this photo is something that's apparently being grabbed onto. I can't yet point to any specific site or video. This is just an informal post from someone on another [forum]: One of the pictures has what looks like a pen and paper (like hotel stationary) on the desk by...

There are high capacity drum magazines. But I didn't realize there are practical 100 round box magazines for .223 caliber rifles. I think I've found the exact make and model Paddock was using. http://www.surefire.com/mag5-100.html Surefire MAG5-100 High-Capacity Magazine, 100-Round Photo...

http://www.cnn.com/2017/10/05/us/las-vegas-shooting-latest/index.html A person matching the name Stephen Paddock reserved a room at the Blackstone Hotel in Chicago in August during the Lollapalooza Music Festival... That person never checked into the hotel... It’s not immediately clear...

I think it's time to stop.

The critical factor you are missing: You are not including the kinetic energy from the earth's rotation. Once again, you must factor in the centrifugal force Let me try another way: The equatorial bulge is caused by the earth's rotation. The earth's surface at the equator is farther away...

I'm afraid that people who aren't used to thinking in terms of potential energy just aren't going to understand this.

What I'm asking for is not another measurement of earth radius, you understand. I'm asking how you came to the conclusion... Why have you decided that we do not have a [n adequate] force to "push" the Mississippi along... etc.? Where are your calculations?

Show your work.

This is a misunderstanding of the difference between solar days and sidereal days which I have run into many times. But that's an issue for a separate thread.

What have you calculated?

If I'm reading this correctly you're insisting that earth radius is the only important factor. I'm asking you to go back to Isaac Newton's thought experiment as presented earlier.

The claimed divide between a psychological problem and a neurological problem is artificial. Depression (or schizophrenia!) is a psychological problem? But dementia is a neurological problem? This is merely a vague intuitive idea. Psychological problems inhabit a weird world of causeless...

You shouldn't speak in terms of simply gravitational potential energy. Not taking everything into account. Trailbalzer said it best.

Edited a bit to correct some things and add one more flavor. There are different flavors of the FE belief in rivers flowing the wrong way. 1. The most common: FE believers have a naive intuitive belief that south is "down" and north is "up" simply because maps and globes traditionally are...

Good ask, because I can point to an article that explores exactly that. https://www.esri.com/news/arcuser/0610/nospin.html Edit: The same one that was cited earlier in this thread, btw... The "Northern Circumpolar Ocean" Today, all three world oceans are connected. This creates a global...

This thought experiment by Isaac Newton should clarify... http://www.phy6.org/stargaze/Srotfram1.htm If the earth stopped spinning, (but somehow maintained its oblate shape!), the Mississippi would not flow south, and the oceans would pile up in the northern and southern hemispheres. If the...

Could you make a comment on this thread? https://www.metabunk.org/all-the-ships-at-sea-a-pragmatic-test-of-earths-shape.t8954/

Your point is not clear... but you might be referring to a seeming problem with compass direction during the flight Max Igan took? If so, that is explained here: https://www.metabunk.org/debunking-flat-earth-with-the-southern-hemisphere.t7693/#post-184906 Be sure you understand magnetic...

Would you please make a comment on this thread? https://www.metabunk.org/all-the-ships-at-sea-a-pragmatic-test-of-earths-shape.t8954/#post-209084 I've been trying to get FE believers to comment on this subject, but response has been sparse.

IMO all FE conversations should begin with this. The conversation is dominated by discussions about theory. But theory has to be tested. Which model and which map has passed the test? FE belief is predicated on the odd idea that the map of the world is unknown and down right mysterious. But...
