> Hi Russell, > Huh? Are you joking? What do you mean by "really effective"?! Yes, I was joking, but the statement was based on what has been stated by some to be fact but which I have not checked the basis of for myself. REPORTEDLY - if you view the world's land masses from space then the Great Pyramid at ?Giza is at the centrre of gravity. This strikes me as a somewhat specious claim as, depending on your point of reference when projecting your map you could find many points which would be the c of g of the resultant flat map. I imagine that by appropriate choice you could arrive at the Great Pyramid as the c of g - But it was a good start for a spurious comment. The pyramid concerned was enough only for 1 occupant in the penthouse but I understand there were a number of lesser unfortunates in the lowe levels.
