Sick and tired of a wobbly table? Do you:

1. Find a piece of paper to stack it up?
or
2. Rotate the table?

The correct answer is 2. Rotate the table. That's according to an international team of mathematicians (read from Nov's issue of Reader's Digest). Just make sure the legs of your table form a perfect rectangle.

It's interesting what scientists or academics are researching on sometimes. I mean, when they go to work, they sit down and ponder over the problem of how to make a table not wobbly? They conduct experiments, spend the entire day, trying to solve that problem? Sure, it's interesting and may help in convenience but still, we can live without that right. I'm sure some of us do rotate the table at times. Now, it's called a solution. Oh well. At least it makes the world more interesting.

By the way, there's a trade-off. These mathematicians say they've solved the wobbly table problem. BUT they've created another problem. The table won't necessarily be horizontal.

Use at your own risk.
