Let's face it, it's just another "feel good" law. Politicians pass laws to make everyone feel safe, comfortable, or whatever. Here in my home state, they passed laws to make "everyone feel safe about not having forest fires'. Guess what? They didn't ticket Mother Nature for lightning. Nor do idiots with fireworks pay attention to laws.

Down to1.9 centimeters?

So the earth would shrink down to 1.9 centimeters. How would we know as we and our measuring devices such as a ruler would shrink also? Maybe it's already happened and we just don't know?

Something fishy about the headline?

So history was wrong? The Indians were clobbered by Custer, not the other way around? Hmm... 135 cavalry vs. several thousand Indians... yep... Custer won.
