I don’t think we are poles apart; you’re making assumptions here.

I’m a Stones fan over the Beatles; Floyd, Zeppelin, Free, Hendrix. And I also like ELO and whatever music takes my fancy.

Anyway, is musical taste such a divider or people in your mind?
2 out of 7 not much of a match,me and my mates would be 7s all the way.

I have friends who don’t share any musical tastes with me. We grew out of that sort of thinking after school.

I didn’t say it did.

You’re missing the point. Which is; the Sun physically and actually rises above the horizon 8 minutes before we see it.

It’s cool.
The Sun doesn't "physically" rise.

The earth turns and exposes you to the sun's rays instantaneously, which left the sun 8 minutes ago.

The trip light takes from the sun to earth does not change the time of sunrise.

Put your hand up to the sun. It blocks the light, yeah? Do you think you have to wait 8 minutes to see the sun after you move your hand away?

The time of sunrise is the time the earth turns you into the sunbeam. It has nothing to do with sunlight transit time.

What downfall? I am doing just great thank you very much.

Hell I got more wins than you do and I am not with Breaking Bad 3 years yet. 🙂

I won on that deal got on a decent Clan and got away from your crap with a co-Clan member.

The only down fall I see is me leaving and then you guys losing Mike which hurt even more. If you want to look at winners and losers you do end up on wrong end of the stick in this one. 🙂

The sun is physically above the horizon 8 minutes before we see it. It’s a cosmological fact.

The “downfall” you mentioned in the post I was replying to.
