I'll ignore your personal attacks on me and stick to the physics.

That interpretation was wrong, since a force is not an acceleration.
Therefore, you were wrong. Therefore, "we are both right" is also wrong.

Of course it's simple: you were wrong (and maybe a troll, who knows).
What's difficult is getting you to accept that. Not that I'm going
to try any longer.

The concepts are so simple and so basic that this must have been tried
(or a at least seriously considered) before. It must be that, for
whatever reasons, the ISPs are reluctant to join such a system.
There are some good insights here. I especially liked the
"Speculations" on, "reintroducing Greek democracy". We should all hope
this works.

The problem is that you are educated.
If you were a moron you would realize that actual physics is only known by
the government and everything we learn in Unis is nothing but lies.

That is an impressive list, Wei Dai.
Thank you very much for your efforts.
I wasn't able to add to the list due to brain lock.
You (or someone) may want to add the following person:

No, it is the gravitational *acceleration* that remains a constant.

Gravitational acceleration remains a constant and gravitational field
strength remains a constant (assuming, for both, we're reasonably close
to the Earth's surface). The force acting on the body due to gravity
is given by Fg = mg (where g = 9.81ms^-2) and is far from constant.
