When you see a Space Shuttle sitting on the lauch pad,there are two big boster rockets attached to the sides of the main fuel tank.These are solid rocket boosters,or SRBs.The SRB are made by Thiokol at their factory in Utah.The engineers who designed the SRBs wanted to make them a bit fatter,but they have to be shipped by train from the factory to the Kennedy Space Center.The railroad line runs through a tunnel so the SRB's had to be designed to fit through the tunnel.The tunnel is slightly wider then the railroad track,and the railroad track as you know from reading part 1 is about as wide as two horse's behinds.
So,a major Space Shuttle design feature of what is arguably the world's most advanced transportation system was determined over two thousand years ago by the width of a horse's ass.
And you thought being a horse's ass wasn't important.Ancient horse's asses control almost everything...and CURRENT horse's asses are controlling everything else.
