Actually the acceleration bit is 9.8 m/s^2. Thats the calculation we learned in applied physics, but we always rounded to 10 cause my teacher preferred the easiness of 10 as the number typically multiplied. No complaints here.
I don't find it racially offensive whatsoever

Posted: 4/20/06 at 6:17pmHonestly, I didn't know about a lot of "racially insensitive" phrases/words/stereotypes until I came to college. I definitely wasn't sheltered in the traditional sense (I grew up in a public school system with no racial majority) but I think times are changing. Or, at least they had where I was growing up, because they honestly never came up in any context. I mean, maybe I was just naive because I couldn't have been the target of any of them, but I honestly don't even remember hearing some of these words growing up.

Posted: 4/20/06 at 6:39pmI guess as long as the watermelon lands on whitey, the rest doesn't really matter.

I agree, Skittles. I definitely was blissfully ignorant to almost every racial stereotype until I got to college and took an Ethnic Studies course. Most of them surprised me.
And I couldn't see how this was insensitive until like, the third time I read it. Then I got it.

Now, if she was throwing Donald Rumfeld off the roof, well, that would be a good math problem with an even better solution.
I guess I could take it as good news that some did not realize the racial stereotype that was the premise of this thread.
