" 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
