In fact I Do Own the Whole Universe

When geocentrists marry it seems that there are fewer of us heliocentrists left to hold fast to our marginalized position in this solar system we call home. The fear is that not only are geocentrists marrying, but they may be breeding as well. How else to explain this curious bit of data…

In this year’s General Social Survey individuals were asked this provocative question:
Does the Earth go around the Sun, or does the Sun go around the Earth?

And survey says…

Earth around sun 73.6%
Sun around earth 18.3%
Don’t Know 8.0%
Refused to answer 0.1%

Yikes! Almost one-fifth of us are basking in the Dark Ages.
