Former friend, Anglave, was fascinated with the airplane on a treadmill problem.
Not the problem itself, but the need for people to chime in and stake out their argument; then digging in on their answer to the exclusion of all other things.
I remember when he tried to bring that up, it triggered me to passionately explain MY position.
Well, I would like to think that he'd be proud of me that the airplane on a treadmill problem is making the rounds again on Facebook, and that I am not even clicking on the link to read the comments, let alone making a comment of my own!
For the record, the problem was from a high school teacher attempting to teach the class about how forces work and was trying to show that the propeller didn't act on the ground, yet the plane would still move.
It snowballed from there.
