-- Take two rocks or two Bowling balls.

-- Find two buildings with different heights. Measure their heights.

-- Drop one rock or bowling ball from the roof of one building. Measure

the time it takes to hit the ground.

-- Drop another rock or bowling ball from the roof of the other building.

Measure the time it takes to hit the ground.

-- Now you have all the information you need to calculate the acceleration of gravity.

Wait a second! Stop the presses! Hold the back page!

I thought about it some more.

You only have to do one drop, and you have all the information you need

to calculate the acceleration of gravity.
