Drawing of a clockwork spider wheel and hairpin.

Extract from Introductory Chapter;-
The "Spider tops," which are frequently sold in the streets of London,
consist of a heavy little disc mounted on a spindle (Fig. XIV.).
When the disc has been set spinning a small curved piece of
metal is placed to touch the toe, and at once begins to slide round it,
first the side (a) in the figure, and then the side (b),
the motion continuing backwards and forwards till the top comes to rest.
The fact is that the toe is magnetic, and this being the case it is easy
to see that the rolling of the toe on the side of the metal produces
the motion.

From the book

Spinning Tops and Gyroscopic Motion.

Big Bertha Thing fact

Anything but a fact, changes the face of twentieth century science.
1. No iron moons and planetary cores.
2. No red shift measure of speed.
3. No Patrick Moore star at 95% the speed of light.
4. Muons arrive on earth.
5. Relativity is like an imaginary number; useful but not real.
6. Einstein-Haas gives a field strength 1/10000th the electric field.
7. Wave particle duality is a field effect.
8. Schroedinger is an approximation.

Who has the wit to check the fact?

Big Bertha Thing tactics

To whom it may concern. (Newsgroup: sci.chem)
To defend against a denial of service attack on a newsgroup,
use the same tactics that Big Bertha Thing uses
on the most wanted list guys.
 1. All threads are one posting long.
 2. All replies are posted to one thread.
 3. No postings of most wanted are read.
 4. No replies to most wanted.
 5. No direct criticism of most wanted.
 6. All criticism should be pictorial, literate, allegorical
       anecdotal and out of copyright.
 7. It is a defense in English law that something which is not
       libelous in one context, cannot be read in another
       context as libelous.
 8. This is also true of English universities, where the guy has tenure.
 9. Corporate branding can reinforce trust, as well as irritation.
10. A group of guys posting across several newsgroups,
       can have strategic reasons for their choice of newsgroups.
11. Three battles have been won so far. (39 family jewels)
12. The fourth battle is now on. (Asian Rim)
13. So I posted a picture of historical scientific interest,
       which looked like a shell hole. (Virtual artillary shell)
14. Use double pass newsreader software to download headers,
       before the rest of the postings. (NNTP)
