   It would seem that I am not alone in believing that gravity exists.   
      
   I wouldn’t have bothered, but this turns up in an Institute of Physics   
   email that dropped into my inbox this morning. I decided that it was too   
   opportune to waste.   
      
   And so, farewell. May you live long and die happy!
