On the lighter side

Yahoo Message Number: 9316
I just finished washing my coach and have a question I have been meaning to bring up for discussion for some time.

How do bugs get squashed on the back side of the coach armor (bug shield)? Maybe we have a physics professor on the board who can advance a theory. My guess is that they are squashed on the windshield and slide down. The gap between the windshield and the bug shield causes them to lose a little speed, thus they are splattered on the inside of the b.s.(no pun intended).

Hope to see some of you in Tennessee next month.

Nah, it is the phenomenon known as the "Negative Articulated Atmospheric Pressure Relativity Syndrome."
In other words, the bugs are "sucked" in behind the shield, due to negative pressure, then the negative pressure forces them back into the shield, where their guts are squished out.

Or you're backing up way too fast :-)
