    Thursday's "why" question!

    Ok, feast your eyes and brains on this baby!!!!

    You are travelling at the speed of light in your car! What would happen if you were to put your headlights on? (lights on the front of the car, just incase different people have different names for them).

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

      I know the answer but I'm not telling. I want to see if anyone else knows.

        You would go faster because there would be more light? (i.e. more speed?) heee

        I think you'd be in the dark.

            Rich - you're right. That is a humdinger. My answer is, your lights would just be on. Not like they would help you because the brain can't really process that fast of movement anyways.

                  I think you would be driving in the glow of your own headlights! Yes, thats it your own head lights. Driving in the glow of them. Yes.

                      Actually its a law here Rich, all new cars have to have lights that come on automatically whenever you start the engine, I think that all started in Canada if I'm not mistaken. Its susposed to be safer

                        just like when you fly in a plane and walk to the bathroom. if the plane is going 500MPH you are not really walking 502 MPH you are just going your normal speed but to somebody on the ground you would be going 502MPH. Since the headlights are moving with the car their light would show in front for the person driving the car
