Neither is correct actually, because "above" and "below" are perceived terms and relative to your particular viewpoint.

Rwd, if we work under your assumption then that means the people on the other side of the world from us (the Japanese for example) are below gravity, even though they perceive it as you do... pulling them downward.

You can be above or below a thing. I can be above the ground, or above my shoes...

Gravity is a force, a directional acceleration of 9.8 m/s^2. You can't be above or below it.

no, because the center of the earth is still below them. the center of the earth is below you no matter where you are on the outside of the earth

****! It was just a name of a lowrider group my friend and I made up. I'm the only person in the group that still has anything close to a lowrider. I still haven't put my airride on yet.

Is raunchy a good thing or a bad thing?

Except for the different ground effects since it's an 89 and mine's a 91, the outside of that car looks EXACTLY like mine when I first bought it.

I'm looking for some good pics that I took from when I lived up in the NW, my GTA on the coast, in front of some brilliant foliage, etc. but I suspect that they're on a different HD (old PC died recently). Until I find 'em, I guess if anyone's curious they can check out my vBGarage (link in sig)...

EDIT: D@mn trigger, those are some beautiful birds...

Before it died, and after it died with the new car.

I really miss that 85 Camaro. Body style was so much better.
