Well common sense doesn't move at light speed you know. A lot (or even most) of scientific discoveries are counter-intuitive to our common sense (Carl Sagan has a beautiful rant about this). Rationality is unaffected by this and is free to use the best answers we find without relying on compliance with a system that was developed to keep us alive before we could make tools (common sense that is). And there is no situation that I know where common sense cannot be replaced by rationality (simply because if using common sense is the best solution, then that would obviously be the most rational thing to do). Rationality > common sense |

As I've said, scientific discoveries are more like "Huh...that's funny" than "Eureka!" Anyhow, I think we can call this discussion over since the original question has been answered. |

Oh yeah. The thing about Eureka, is, Aristotle or whatshisname found it out with the law of displacement. He did an experiment with his bath and the water displaced was equal to his weight. In celebration he ran through the streets of Athens stark naked yelling, "Eureka! Eureka!" |

Well, volume equals density/mass... D=MV -> V=D/M |

your formula is correct except its d=m/v (but i think that was just typo). it wasn't equal to his mass because, he has a different density to the water (that's why drowned people sink). the volume of water displaced is equal to his volume. |

...and since the water has a higher density than a living philosopher, the volume of water displaced will be heavier than the volume of philosopher immersed and he will float. |

Don't worry Luemas, everybody makes mistakes. That's why we have science to correct our mistakes. And I wouldn't say "only" human. After all, you now have 4000 posts CONGRATULATIONS LUEMAS! w000t1!
