Message:


me and the wife are arguing about this.  "In the movie Honey I shrunk the 
kids" the kids are shrunk in size would this, in theory reduce there wieght or 
would it stay the same as when they were there normal size.  I state it would 
change because the gravitational pull would change since the size of the 
obejct has shrunk, her theory is the wieght would remain the same becuase all 
it did is remove the emty space in there bodies.  If you could shed some real 
sience on this, if it were possible
