The explanation is slightly wrong, but it's impressive nonetheless. Basically the site says that you're seeing an image of the mountain reflected off a layer of air/atmosphere so that it's visible when it normally wouldn't be. Normally the mountain woul … (see comment)

Why is he dug down? He's exactly right. Any device that uses magnets to propel itself can not be considered perpetual motion - the magnets will eventually die out. As to how to charge a magnet - place it in another stronger magnetic field - the magneti … (see comment)

Same problem as the old one - you HAVE to just get interest upgrades to get a good score... And you shouldn't be able to get a top 10 score (300,000) your first time playing... (see comment)
