| I appeared right in front of you, staring you in the face and asking
| you how big the force of gravity acting on a orbiting astronaut is, and
| asking you what the definition of "weight" is, and you sat there in
| your blind (how appropriate a term) holding your rusty gun and did
| nothing except stick out your tongue.
