Re: [math-fun] You Can Balance a Wobbly Table by Rotating It

<< On NPR's Saturday Weekend Edition, they did a story with "Math Guy" Keith Devlin. He described a recent (last year) proof that, if the slope of the ground is at most about 35 degrees (actually, ArcTan[1/Sqrt[2]]), then you can balance a wobbly table by rotating it. (This assumes a mathematically perfect table, with the ground being a continuous function of x and y).
