OK - so you took a couple HOW questions and stuck a "Why" in front of them. That still doesn't make them WHY questions but if you want to think it does then go right ahead. I like your answers though. Definitely more succinct than anything I could come up with. Man, I envy people who can look at the back of a DVD and admire the pretty colors instead of thinking about diffraction gratings...


BTW, Mr Smartypants - do you think the big turtle at the South Pole will ever get tired? You know the one I'm talking about right? He carries the Earth around on his back and that's how we orbit the Sun.
