" I agree,
spitting in the ocean raises the ocean level, but if you do it from a boat,
the boat rises by approximately two times the spit!"
Sounds like
something for nothing. Wouldn't the lightened boat rise, thus reducing the
amount of ocean displaced, resulting in a drop in the level of the ocean equal
to the amount of added fluid, being the same fluid quantity removed from the
boat, and then...oh, what the hell. I think I'll have a beer, wait an hour and
REALLY raise the ocean level, standing on the shore and avoiding all this
painful thought. w
