"Scientific research has proven that this change in planetary positioning would very likely stop global warming, extend daytime hours and create more homogenous climate."

Or send us to a fiery death as we're sucked into the Sun.

Also, how can one extend daytime hours for everyone? Are we going to get a second sun to shine on the other side?

Well, if the earth spins slower, the day would be longer. But then, time is made up concept, so... uh, paging Einstein...

I feel like Jason Schartman's character in I heart Huckabees:

"Have you ever trascended time and space?"

"What? Ya... well, no. Well, time but not space. Okay I don't know what you're talking about"

By the way, I'm worried about something... Is "Steak and BJ Day" on March 14th or March 20th? I fear I've missed it.

So, yeah. Slower rotation means a longer day (no need for Einstein there). But, it also means extended nighttime hours. They don't tell you that. They get you jumping and next thing you know your nighttime is 14 hours long. Damn fine print.

And wouldn't you need everyone jumping on the same side of the planet?

Nice one Denis.

If you click on the "more info", it goes on to say that they need everyone jumping on one side of the planet.

So basically you're saying if I do this, I need to buy new watches and various electronic devices? And our winter nighttimes will be even longer in Canada?

Nuts to that.

I also like how these new age hippies (no doubt) think it would be a good to all of sudden alter climates and lengthen daylight. So much for animal and plant migration and breeding schedules.

Since there are TWO threads, does that mean we have to jump twice?



I was all out of luck, like a duck that died. I was all out of juice, like a moose denied.

No it means you get to come back down. It's a gravity pass.

Well, that's a grave consequence.
