Of cats and the laws of physics

Seems like it does[^] :laugh:

Could someone kindly explain to me how they got from "the box that makes a noise has something inside it" to "cats understand physics"? Cats seem to grasp the laws of physics[^] Sounds like a good way to swindle research funds.
I finished watching a random Monty Python video just prior to reading this thread, so naturally I read all these comments in the various voices of the Python troupe. It was extraordinarily entertaining, what with all the non-sequiters and whatnot. "That's not a cat license. That's a dog license with the word 'dog' crossed off and 'cat' written in crayon."

I'd have said it's the basic grasp of "noise == something to chase". Hunting instinct != understanding of Physics.

Because without some grasp of physics there's no way for cats to make the predictions they do. Duh.

Only to someone who knows nothing about the field science and how and why research is done.

So he understands about lasers, batteries, optics, etc. That's good. You should write a paper about it.

Great! Sort one out, and let her do all the work! You can just rake in all the money, because money has nothing to do with Physics, so cats don't understand it.
