The weight at the fulcrum, the barycenter, is going to be an average of 200 pounds, at least.
I don't agree, so please show the maths you did to work out that average.
(The maths to work out the most common types of average is very simple, so I don't think I am asking for anything particularly arduous.)

...as I see from your Wikipedia user page that you've been arguing this position since at least 2011.
FFS! Now look what you made me go and do!!
You made me look up Peter on google and I ended up watching his YouTube clip.
How am I supposed to maintain an unbiased and detached attitude to Peter now that I know what he is actually like??
tbh, I almost feel that asking him to explain his thoughts could be considered bullying. :S

Okay,. P:anmda. Let's get back to splittiong hairs. I'm saying that if the black hole is spinning at the same speed as your terminal velocity, you won't deccelerate, you will just get 'accreted'.
That's not a mistake - but it is a chance to prove you wrong.
I've seen your replies.
And now I've seen your video.
I don't think anything else needs to be said.
Bye!

Just a minute...
Repetition! ...and deviation.
Well, that's one way to get the thread into summary mode.

Peter Lamont has a child-like curiosity - which is apposite.
