Why do we say some foods are "Stick to your ribs" foods?

'Cause they're painful to eat! <rim shot>

Why do we take the goings on of our favorite sports/athletes personally?

Because we tend to put them up on a pedestal thinking they are somehow above the common man. We tend to forget that even the celebrities whether sports, movies, etc. still put their pants on one leg at a time just like everyone else.

it has something to do with the diffusion of sunlight by the earth's atmosphere and the spectrum and I can't express it well in English

Yep, light is bent or refracted as it passes through a given medium, which in this case would be droplets of water in the atmosphere and some of it's bent just the right way for us to see some of the rays with a bluish color. It's the same as light going through a prism. We see light that approaches our eye at a given angle and it happens to be the part of the spectrum that matches the blue part (been awhile since I reviewed my basic science. lol.).

Why is it that when a problem comes up people almost never look for the obvious answer to it?

so, to help you brush up on physics, 2 more question on colors: why is the ocean blue almost everywhere? and why it is green at some places?

Problem makes people nervous and the panic it causes interferes with rational thinking.

Why do you think people are looking for tranquility?

Actually Looking for an Answer.....

What is the purpose of the "People & Places" tag? I have 13 random books that were automatically tagged as such.

Because they are looking for it in the wrong place.

It would be nice if it could lead somewhere.
