i call bollocks. the moon's gravitational pull might make a bulge out of the water but thats about it. this does not preclude the earth from being a sphere. |
The bulge on the earth's equator is ofcourse because of it's rotation about the axis. But the moon does exert a bulging force on the rocks. This page gives a beautiful explanation about a number of earth-moon related gravitational effects. I'll quote the part that is relevant here.
| quote: | | ...that is why there are two tidal bulges on the Earth, one on the near side, and one on the far side. Since water is more flexible than rock, we see the tidal effect strongly in the oceans of the Earth, but barely at all in the ground. However, the rock does bend, by as much as 30 centimeters (about a foot) up and down twice a day! |

Crowd kills man after car hits child
June 21, 2007 - 6:40AM
A Texas crowd beat a man to death after his friend hit a small girl with his car, police said today.
The girl, aged about 3, was struck at 9.30pm yesterday in a crowded apartment complex parking lot across the street from a park where up to 3000 people were attending a festival.
The driver of the car got out to check on the girl - who was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries - and quickly got into a fight with several men in the crowd. He managed to escape relatively unharmed by driving away, but Morales was beaten to death, Mr Piatt said.
