I watched the moon walking footage form the Apollo missions and I have a simple question: I don’t understand why the dust or fine sand always falls immediately to ground while the astronauts which are much heavier have to deal with the lesser gravitation. Isn’t this mass related: the heavier the faster one should drop (Newton) and therefore for the dust with less mass and gravitation it should take much longer ? Just curious? Note I haven’t made my mind up what I should believe about the whole thing. This is a scientific question, ok!

The winning times in the 500 meter skating world championship for men are approximated by m = 46 - 0.1y and for women by w = 57- 0.2y, where y is the time in years since 1900 (so y = 5 is 1905) and m and w are the times in seconds. Using these approximations in what years will men and women's times be equal?

If you could, or if you have, how would you make fun of another? Or, do you think this behaviour is wrong and avoid it?

Most of my friends don't wear helmets while riding a bike. I'm not sure if I should go with the flow or just be myself and wear a helmet, just to be on the safe-side. So do you think helmets are uncool?

If a person has wronged someone and the person that has been wronged says that they forgive the other person, do they actually mean it? In my opinion, nothing is ever really forgiven. You will always remember what has been done to you. Do you believe in forgiveness?

On the Tour de France Marcus Burghardt hit a dog who had wandered across the road. Does anyone have a web link that indicates the dog is OK?

Labradors are very stoic when it comes to pain. My lab broke his leg, he did not even make a sound. I have researched to find out about this dog and asked my friends in France however nothing. This bicyclist should have made more effort to get away from the dog. Look at the finish line, these guys bunch up and lean on each other - he had plenty of room to move around him, this is a pro bicyclist!!! Poor dog, he knew he was not in the right place.

Can a Family Court force my son that has extreme an extreme anxiety disorder force my son to go to his Dad's for visition?Going to his Dad's is just an underlying proble. He doesn't go out with friends, going on elevators, being without me for 5 minutes, if I', in the house has to know where I am at all times, won't go on school trips, won't go to restautants etc. But his father thinks it's because I am stopping him from going. I beg my son to go with his gahter. It has nothing to do with his father, it's his anxiety. He is 10 and has lost the first 10 years of his life. If he's forced, he will ever get better, he is seeing a psychologist for 8 months and now he is finally working on his anxiety, rather than why he doesn't want to go to his Dad's. He in so much pain, I cry constantly, especially when he lies to his friends why he can't go somewhere. He always has a story for them because he's embarrased why he can't go. What will the court's do?

If you are in any third party in the USA (Independent, Green, etc.), it's almost a truism that a vote for your candidate is "a vote for the Republican." Do you agree? If so, how do you follow your conscience in voting, knowing that your candidate has no chance to become President, VP, etc. on election day?

2 weeks prior to Indiana Court ruling for defendant the plaintiff initiated Florida Case, likely knowing result of Indiana decision. Any & all criteria relative to State Statutes concerning Florida Court justifiably entering jurisdiction are disproved and moot, though Florida Court continues to exercise jurisdiction. Plaintiff moved then to another circuit within the state and initiated same said case again there; said case was dismissed . . . yet original Florida Circuit Court continues to exercise jurisdiction in error.
