Newton's first law

BTW: the earth is slowing down gradually. Infact there was a series a few months back in NGC (about the universe and its past present and future) where these aspects (and the eventual escape of moon from earth's gravity) was covered.

GA Guest.

Why don't you join up so we know where to throw our kudos, or wrenches.

Because I am feeling in a very weired mood the answer to the question is either '42', or 'What it takes to be a Plumber': Hot's on the left, cold's on the right, shit flows downhill, and payday is Friday
