BONES Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 you all may have heard this one before but anyhoo.............. Sally and her younger brother were fighting. Their mother was tired of the fighting, and decided to punish them by making them stand on the same piece of newspaper in such a way that they couldn't touch each other. How did she accomplish this?

Mephisto Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 ... She unfolded it? One piece of newspaper is big enough for two people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mephisto Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 (edited) She shot them off into space, away from all large objects. Since they are the objects with the largest gravity, they will attract each other. One stands on one side of the page while one stands on the other. The force of their gravity will keep them together. How's that for "not physically possible?" Oh, sorry. You said 'not physically impossible.' How about this? She put the piece of newspaper under a door. One stands on one side while one stands on the other. The door is closed.
