Don Libes seismo!nbs-amrf!libes Ok...now its my turn to post someone else's humor: (reprinted wo/perm from Legends of CalTech) The following was circulated on an official Physical Plant Dept's Notice of Interruption form. (An actual photocopy is in the book.) To: Campus From: Physical Plant Subject: Interruption of Gravity The campus architect has requested a temporary interruption of gravity for the purpose of making certain major alterations of campus design. The following changes will be made: 1) Removal of Culbertson Hall. 2) Removal of the upper floors of Throop Hall. 3) Conversion of Fleming House into a parking lot. It is expected that gravity will be off for a period of approx. 11 hours on October 4, 1971, from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. Only the campus areas south of San Pasqual will be affected. We have been advised that the interruption will undoubtedly create non- causal gravitational singularities along the boundaries of the region affected. Therefore San Pasqual Street will be closed to traffic throughout the day. It is advised that the following precautions be taken: 1) All heavy equipment should be tied down. All laboratories will be carefully inspected on Oct. 1. 2) Due to danger of walking outside, all personnel are urged not to leave buildings. If forced to travel from one building to another the steam tunnels should be used. 3) Change in the pressure differential in pipes may trigger fire alarms and sprinklers. Please do not leave buildings. 4) Since elevators will be inoperative during this time, please use stairways. 5) All people normally parking cars south of San Pasqual should take care not to do so on Oct. 4. 6) Please do not flush toilets.
