Suppose you're standing at the height of low earth orbit -- but you're not orbiting (say you're in a space elevator ). What is the acceleration of gravity acting upon you -- what fraction do you weigh ?

Can you help me put together a list of events in military history that illustrate principles for an office? e.g. Schlieffen plan: fallacy of sticking to a plan. Pyrrhic victory: importance of defining success. Hitler attacks France then Russia: if you have two enemies, attack in sequence
