What's interesting to me is not what's going on when your're doing the speed of light, but what could happen as you accelerate TOWARDs the speed of light: ---Is this the world's hardest way to get to own a stretch limo? ---What happens when you turn around to shout at the kids in the back seat and find they've died from old age? ---What kind of havoc could this wreak on the honorable institution of Backseat Driving? ---What happens if you miss a gear-change? ---If your kid tries to climb into the front seat with you? ---If you suddenly realize you forgot to turn the iron off? ---If one (or more) of your passengers tend towards car-sickness? ---If your headrest breaks off? -Mike Smithson School of Behavioural Sciences, James Cook University, Queensland 4811 Australia; bhmjs@marlin.jcu.edu.au -- Edited by Brad Templeton.

Please don't send me requests of the form, "could you please send me the joke about XXX?" Yes, I have it, but if I were willing to let myself be a joke server I would spend all day doing it.
