What if the person was driving on a turn around?

Two wrongs are only the beginning.
Success always occurs in private and failure in full view.
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

hum...
Aren't you guys assuming a linear model here? What happens to the model
when we find out that the subject attempting to make all these turns has had
a glass of wine or two??? Would we then have to resort to using proc nlin??

Art,
Taking your diagram one step further,
+------+
| |
| | |
^ | | v
| +------+
<-b <-a
<-b <-a
| +------+
v | | ^
| | |
| |
+------+
if you take four +90 degree turns and
end up going the same direction, and/or
you take four -90 degree turns and
end up going the same direction, with
the positive and negative directions,
along with all of the electromagnetic
energy and radiation in the visible
light radiation, ultraviolet, rf, x-rays,
gamma-rays (natural or manmade), will
that stream of photons which are traveling
massless particles in a wave-like pattern
cause you to feel any different after
going in the positive direction or in the
negative direction, or will you feel any
different between walking straight ahead
and after walking both directions thus
cancelling out the positive and negative
impacts, will you feel the same or different?
Or will the Parallel Path theories cause
you to walk more easily and efficiently
when you walk the original forward direction
after you have walked both +/- directions.

Ron,
Question David? Even for Friday humor? Shame!
He could have been coming from a perspective like the following:
+------+
| |
| |
| |
+------+
<-b <-a
Where <-b is the before person and starting direction, and <-a is where
the person ends up after taking 4 right turns. Depending upon one's
persepctive, of course, to the left of where they started.
