Physics was never my strong point at school. About the only thing I moreorless understood was the Refraction of Light, because my pencil appeared to bend when I popped it into a beaker of water. Mu, the teacher called it, and there was a formula to calculate mu, one of the many legacies from my grammar school days of which I have never had further need.
Any road up, in my mature years, I pointed out to those who understand these things that gravity is getting stronger, ie, things fall to the ground more than they used to. Of course I got no response from the world's physicists, perhaps because they have all buggered off into a parallel universe where the booze is cheaper.
And now, I have another observation to offer any physicists who have not yet joined the PU brain drain, viz: Why is it that the moment you take the cork out of a wine bottle, the wine disappears?
It can't be evaporation, and surely not teleportation, but I tell you, my beloveds, I am becoming unnerved by the way the wine disappears from the bottle before I have had a chance to pour more than 3-4 glasses from it.
Eureka shmeureka, it's not global warming that bothers me, it's the way the Laws of Physics are falling apart before my very eyes, especially Australian reds.
