Me and a mate were chatting about the fact that there arent enough hours in the day, and come up with a plan.

We get loads of really big rockets, stick them all on really high pylons pointing in the opposite direction to the earths rotation and slow it down.

Would it work?

Would you want it to?

Would you like a crisp?

Discuss, dammit!

Why don't we move to one pole 6 months of the year, and the other for the other 6 months.

Then we get 1 or 2 days a year, with only the flight between poles being night.
