Galileo's Laws which we were ignorant of!!

Sunday, December 14, 2008

Ok..so i was not supposed to blog until exams get over but this one crumbled my resolve.....My sister who is now in grade 11 CBSE has this physics teacher who said in class,

So this Galileo was sitting under the Apple tree and a ball fell on him. That's how he discovered gravity....

ROTFL! So we all studied wrong. This Galileo did all the hard work and Newton took all the credit. Tcha! Probably 'cause he got miffed with Galileo already having a couple of stars under his belt!!!!:):):) So our Newton wanted little limelight perhaps??

If I don't get placed I'm definitely going to consider teaching for a while! Just when i thought things couldn't get worse..

Have a good laugh and also ponder over how teachers are recruited. Perhaps there must be an entrance test for them too :)?

Ciao...

P.S- ROTFL (Rolling on the floor laughing)!

Did you know that no apple ever fell on Newton's head either??

Even that is a bit of zing added to make an interesting story out of science.

Well, that isn't what I say, that is what Stephen Hawkings claims.

But yes, that teacher needs to be hanged.
