| This thread is a place to put down all the pointless knowledge or information you may come across in the course of a day. So here's the first piece of pointless trivia.
If you have iTunes or live in the San Francisco area and pick up 87.9 FM Pirate Cat Radio then you can listen to the Hitchhikers Guide at 2:00 AM in the morning on Sunday. |

| A 53 kg crate is slid up an inclined ramp 5.23 m long onto a platform 3 m above floor level. A 572 N force, parallel to the ramp, is needed to slide the crate up the ramp at a constant speed.
It would take 1560 Joules of work to lift that crate if you skipped using the ramp.
No I didn't take this useful knowledge from my Physics homework like I'd ever call Physics useless ^_^ _________________  .: QxYoyo:. | | Spoiler: | | |  |
