"<a href=""https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-jA2ABHBc6Y&amp;t=6m15s"">6:15</a> I actually remember", if not the very moment, pondering the roundness of the Earth not long after learning of the fact. I even remember the room I was in while thinking about it. Unfortunately, my four year old mind didn't quite grasp it yet. I was actually picturing us living on the inner surface of a sphere; never mind that  it didn't jive with observation. On a side note, I also believed my uncle's car could fly because he lived "up" in Toronto. Though, in my defence, the adults thought it was funny and were more than willing to play along with my borderline-retarded worldview. Anyway, they eventually replaced the lead-based paint in the house, the fever dreams ended, and I came to understand the Earth was round. Also makes me wonder: has there been an uptick in lead poisonings in recent years? You know, approximately in line with the rise of the flat-earth movement?
