the idea is conflicting to the illustrations. it said that massive object bends the fabric of space due to the force of gravity, then the illustrations shows dent on the fabric of space as the massive object moves what the heck?
I don't think it would reduce the pressure enough for you to care. You probably will notice some reduction, but it should be small, and you will get used to the new pressure. Unless the pressure is weak to start with, but in that case you need the advice of an expert inspector / installer.
Why not go for contacts? They are fine for contact sports and get roudn this problem. Also your peripheral vision and depth perception will be better which will improve your sport.
I dont know why they dont do firing lines anymore. All it costs is no more in man hours, and about $1 dollar for the amount of ammunition fired. Compare that to the gas chamber! I would prefer to go out by being shot if I had to choose.
Most manufactured pumps have pump performance curves that gauge pump performance based mostly on the head that the pump has to deliver which is partially a factor of overall pipe length, and number of elbows and other fittings. This would require considerable analysis. I would agree with most of the other responders that your reconfigure shouldn't make much difference. If you wish to reduce the effect of the added piping length, you could increase the pipe diameter.
