Yeah, I've wondered about that too. I think you would be weightless as you'd be pulled in equal amounts of force in all directions?

You know, I have often wondered... If it were possible to be in the exact center of the earth, would you be weightless? I mean would the gravity created by the mass on one side of you would be counter-acted by the gravity on the other side, effectively canceling each other out? I think I missed that physics lesson in school. Just one of those things I ponder when my mind gets empty of other things. -Cameron ----------------- Cameron Childress Sumo Consulting Inc. --- cell: 678-637-5072 aim: cameroncf email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > -----Original Message----- > From: Howie Hamlin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, September 10, 2002 10:29 AM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Hole in the Earth? > > > More likely, a hole in the head.... > > FOLSOM, Calif.
