I was watching the tv one night and lo and behold! Two new common yet unanswered myths.

1.) Are mice really attracted to cheese? We have seen these over and over again in cartoons, commercials, and everything else.

2.) Can objects be supported by a geyser of water? We see mice, people, and other objects being held up by a fountain of H20 in tv all the time. Is this really true?

3.) Can an umbrella be used to break a fall, like a parachute? People keep on jumping asd jumping off cliffs and high places, open an umbrella in mid-air, and float gently to the ground. Is this possible?

mice like anything, depends on the size of the umbrella and its thickness/stability, I guess, why not, and re: the geyser, do it on a small scale with your garden hose and you will see it is true. have fun--Fishfool @ The Reef Tank
