Ok for someone to prove to an FE'r that the earth is round the way that it would need to be proven in order for them to change their mind, you would have to meet them in person. so now i ask, how many of you FE people would be willing to meet someone at their expense?

I would gladly, gladly, meet a Flat Earth believer, and show him around what we call a lab. Those places are really good for coming up with pretty good theories and stuff, not just crazy ass theories made by an attention-seeking lunatic.

I am open to anything. I might add though that this sort of thing has been proposed before. I volunteered to go on a Virgin Galactic flight which was to be organised and funded by RE'ers. It came to nothing.

Right, because meeting random people you meet on a website over the internet is always a good idea.....

I would come just to see if Dann's beard really does look like a vagina.

Yes he is, I see the sharp thingy right there in his avatar... you can't fool me that way.

I suppose I could be persuaded to leave them at home for the night, my paw-to-paw skills would suffice.

Also, the party should definitely be at Cape Canaveral in Florida. It would provide a bit of irony for us, we could watch a shuttle launch and speculate about it!!
