"The eternal mystery of the world is its comprehensibility." --Albert Einstein
A Strange Anomaly
Via dei Laghi runs 60 kms south of Rome, at the edge of the Albanian lake and an extinct volcanic crater. Shortly along this uphill road, a strange anomaly occurs. Bottles and other things roll uphill here in a weak upward gradient, without additional driving power. Even heavy cars move up with engine fully switched off. Originally scientists thought it to be some sort of an optical illusion, but after the recent work of German scientists, Grazyna Fosar and Franz Bludorf, everyone is taking a second look.
