wow..i still dont get the galileo distance ing though......i mean, wat do the odd no. paterns show?

[AlmightScoop]

not much. The key point is the squared relationship. The accelleration is constant, so the velocity increaces linearly and the position increaces in a *squared* fashion. The odd number thing arises because square numbers can be constructed from the sum of odd numbers. ie) 1=1, 4=1+3, 9=1+3+5 and so the difference between them are 1-0=1, 4-1=3, 9-4=5. The constant accel., linear velocity, squared position realtionship can be determined with calculus. The odd number is an mathamtical artifact.
