@2ndTimeIsTheCharm - this statement was not meant to be insulting - the 5-minute time limit ran out before I could correct/fix it. Sometimes, I am very direct and to-the-point in how I write [something] - not always realizing how it might come across.
I added that statement to the post somewhat impulsively because your post reminded me of how "classic" uneducated-about-the-Flat-Earth_model posts often tend to go - silly questions.
But the fact remains - I can tell that there is a lot you do not know/understand about the true nature of the world you live in. I want to encourage you to "do the research" and learn all you can...
