Come over and I'll introduce you to my cousins. And by "introduce" I mean "stand where the pavement stops and point."
One thing to remember about the flatters, they believe that the world is no more complicated than it looks.

For example, gravity. It took a genius to get the first good grasp on it, and he needed an assist from an apple. But any good ole boy can understand acceleration. "A '57 Chevy with a 396 c.i.d. engine will gravity your ass, son!" So it's easier to think the Earth is accelerating constantly than it is to understand why the Australians don't fall off the planet. 
Ignore. The evidence is right there for them to see and there is no reasoning with people who refuse to believe it.

It's all feels and oohs and aahs. |
