Hi Earle,
It still takes a horsepower:

Unless you can tell how we have gravity and other objects such as
the moon spin equally as fast have less, then I don't think we're able
tell anyone what keeps our earth rotating.

Boy, that takes the cake... mixing something makes
it heavier! Those concrete trucks better watch out...
too much mixing and they'll break down. They'd
better spin 'em the other way once in a while, just
so they don't break a spring.

Well, discuss what I said wrong about the
head pressure control... go ahead! Why
don't you point out my mistake... show
where I couldn't possibly understand your
trade.

Never use the stuff, eh? Well, *I* certainly
never use air conditioning... : )
