palinode

I once told you the world is round. I was most decidedly wrong. Forget that statement. The world is very much indeed flat. So flat that the slope is zero, thus when I attempt to roll a boulder it won't begin to move unless I push it. And if I continue to push the boulder it would reach the end of the earth and fall into space.

I say this in hindsight because I know how you will treat me now. Forget science because if you do not accept me I will end up penniless and ridiculed. I am sacrificing discovery so I can be happy and you can be ignorant.

The world is flat. Will you accept me now?
