RE: Machinery of Freedom - Ask questions like a young child

in #freedom8 years ago (edited)

no I'm not a flat earther. why would you say such a thing? I was born in Plainview texas. It's flat there, everything is in "Plain View", no trees, no mountain, no hills, no rivers, nothing to hide behind. You can see things a long ways off. All the the way to the horizon actually.. If you are six foot tall that's about see three miles.

For an observer on the ground with eye level at h = 5 ft 7 in (1.70 m), the horizon is at a distance of 2.9 miles (4.7 km). For an observer standing on a hill or tower 100 feet (30 m) in height, the horizon is at a distance of 12.2 miles (19.6 km).

Therefore: When I climbed on top of something tall (a grain elevator), or the top of the tallest building in town. I could see farther, in fact I could see the next town over, quarter way. which is half way to halfway which is half way to Olton which is twenty five miles a way.
I could also see edmonson, Kress and other places near by.

Flat Earthers are willfully ignorant people.
