I'm a bit leery of the results, as they depend on some negative torsion about
the pivot for the python. I can't say how the body's real response corresponds
to K, but it seems that it must to some degree because our bikes are ridable!

It is still first for me. Most people think that Google tracks your searches in
many ways. If you have cookies on and always use the same IP number, they will
build a profile of your searches and click-throughs and taylor the results! I
just read yesterday that they have 2x the ad "relevance" of Yahoo! for that
