Or perhaps, I should be more specific, and refer to them as gravity-opposing devices, since they operate counter to, say, Earth's gravitational field. You'll also not that gravity has nothing to do with it, but they're not going to mention that in the ads. A few examples of such devices: airplanes, helicopters, air-hocky-boards and pucks, etc. Clever (and not-quite-honest) advertising can describe these things as opposing gravity. That's what I suspect these people are up to. ___Samuel___ _________I_claim_and_accept_sole_responsibility_for_the_above._SjG.____________ | "In the space between our houses/ some bones trimethylxanthine - it gets | have been discovered/ yet our possession you through the day... | lurches on/ as if we had recovered..."
