Re: rocket man to prove flat earth?
Couldn't find the thread with this guy who built and rode a rocket, purportedly to prove the earth was flat ...
Steam powered no less. I figured what he was really trying to prove was that he was going to be squashed flat when he "landed."
If the Earth is flat we should be able to cancel flooding from global warming by drilling a hole in the ocean and draining some of the water.

Re: rocket man to prove flat earth?
The Russians dug the deepest borehole ever at 12,345 meters and had to close up shop because they kept losing the drill heads.
Well sure! They obviously kept falling out the bottom....obviously.
Don't see you here much these days.
