Philosphical Physics!

For my physics project I decided to demonstrate how the center of gravity can be used to keep a broom freestanding by itself for a very long time. It was so funny to hear what people were saying about this project. Things like, "I think the spirits are holding it up." or "Maybe it's the moon." Sadly, these were adults! That shows that something is seriously wrong with our education system. What is this world coming to?
