Gravity didn't exist... and it still doesn't exist today... (in the observable universe).

Nobody has ever observed gravity, just its effects.

(well done LWO/BSH for a cracking fracus by the way, don't mind this waffling) ^^

Talking of observers the Illyriad Herald has not taken much notice of this war but the much smaller Free Press did run a artical a couple of weeks ago.

Here is a copy of it.

The Illyriad Free Times.

 From our War correspondent.

 News just in from Tor Carrock is that the siege of Might de Ville is coming to an end. Orc forces are in the process of withdrawing from the city and the many supporting armies sent by the LWO are beginning to leave. However it is reported that at least one of them is unhappy with their recall orders.

 The Army of the Dog it appears wants to stay put. The men of Nafflik, it seems, like their current surroundings and don’t want to go home to the forested heartland of Tor. Nicknamed “the Waggers” they like the cool fresh air of the mountain city and its comforts.

 “It’s really nice here,” said senior swordsman Halk Dofflemik, “the food is great, we were really welcomed and made to feel at home and as for the views the only word is magnificent!”

 Asvon Folkig, who is a Longbowman, agreed, “ The whole place makes you realise what you are missing in a small town, I hope this war carries on and we can see more of the world. When you see what other troops are equipped with it makes you weep. And as for the uniforms other armies are issued with. Yesterday we saw columns of Elves from the south arriving and every one of them looked like a General, all I have is a brown sackcloth robe,”

 The small army is camped in one of the many public parks that the city boasts of and is also near the Senior Girls campus, which is causing some local problems. The Waggers however do not see this as a problem. “The girls are very friendly and wave to us, very nice, yup, very very nice” said a Pikeman who didn’t want to be named.

 The local dwarf residents are not all that pleased with their allies either “Scruffy buggers they are” said a housewife. “They are always drunk, have turned that nice park into a tip and as for the smell!  I hope they will be gone soon.”

 So it seems the town of Nafflik may have to wait a while for its faraway heroes to return and the rats will have its large leaky wooden Barracks all to themselves.

I would say Zolvon is correct since contrast is a question of perspective and interpretation then anything can be contrasted as long as there is an observer to do the contrasting. Anything that can't be contrasted then, by definition, does not exist in the observable universe.

For example: I can contrast Tambourines and Waffles by saying that that one is very tasty and the other is very untasty.
