earth lighter

Dear DMC

It seems the earth is getting lighter. I was planning to go on a diet, but now I am not sure this is a good idea as it will only add to the problem.

Dear Steve,

This is important research. I didn’t realize until now that this was happening. There is good news, however. It’s happening slowly. Very slowly. Probably too slow for even a dull man to enjoy watching.

There’s also the good news that you now have an excuse for not going on a diet.

I wonder what the danger of the earth getting lighter is? The earth will float away? To where?

Thanks for sending this to us,

Grover
