I just read the last couple of posts, but reminds me of the "Electric Brae or hill". We used to go there.. erm.. generations ago 
The link is dead but this is what I found...
| Quote: |
This runs the quarter mile from the bend overlooking Croy railway viaduct in the west (286 feet Above Ordnance Datum) to the wooded Craigencroy Glen (303 feet above A.O.D.) to the east.
Whilest there is this slope of 1 in 86 upwards from the bend at the Glen, the configuration of the land on either side of the road provides an optical illusion making it look as if the slope is going the other way.
Therefore, a stationary car on the road with the brakes off will appear to move slowly uphill.
The term 'Electric Brae' dates from a time when it was incorrectly thought to be a phenomenon caused by electric or magnetic attraction within the Brae |
Hope this helps (Remember I only read the last few posts)

I haven't posted the link anywhere yet, except when I was stalking people. I don't know if it's too soon to do that.

I think they are baiting passers by. I could be wrong, maybe people are that mad. If not, the BBC have been had. |

Yes.
| I forget which one in the banana shaped earth thread wrote: |
FET is two things, depending on the person advocating it:
1) A counter-intuitive, shocking, and persuasive ideas for psudoscientists and gullible authority dependents.
2) A symbolic intellectual battle, over an abstract issue that depends almost entirely on authority, for the purpose of intellectual calisthenics and trolling. |
In light of that, it's kind of a fun site. |
