In the case of the Neosporin, and all clutter, I believe Newton\u2019s First Law of Motion can explain how it lingers for years in our spaces. An object (clutter) will stay at rest until a force (motivation) of equal or greater value acts upon it. The thought, \u201cI should get rid of that,\u201d is not a force of equal or greater value than the clutter. As unfortunate as it is, thoughts cannot move clutter. We can\u2019t wish away our unwanted objects. We actually have to do something about them physically.

\n Clutter and Newton\u2019s First Law of Motion<\/a>, via Minimalmac<\/a>)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

C’est l’occasion de vous rappeler ce que j’\u00e9crivais Il y a quelques mois, \u00e0 propos du bordel (la version fran\u00e7aise du clutter<\/em>), dans un billet judicieusement intitul\u00e9 Appelez-moi Isaac<\/a>, dans lequel je formulai rien moins que la quatri\u00e8me loi de la gravitation universelle (tout en sauvant l’univers et en faisant la nique \u00e0 Madonna) :<\/p>\n\n

\n

Newton, disais-je, qui n\u2019\u00e9tait pas un imb\u00e9cile, mais qui \u00e9tait peut-\u00eatre un peu distrait malgr\u00e9 tout puisqu\u2019il \u2014 en \u00e9tudiant attentivement cette photo, j\u2019en acqu\u00e9rais la certitude : ce g\u00e9nie unique, ce g\u00e9ant devant lequel tous les autres g\u00e9nies ne sont que des nains juch\u00e9s sur ses g\u00e9n\u00e9reuses \u00e9paules \u2014 avait tout simplement oubli\u00e9 de formuler la quatri\u00e8me loi. L\u2019andouille.\n

\n La quatri\u00e8me loi ? Mais oui, la \u00ab loi de l\u2019accumulation universelle \u00bb, que l\u2019on pourrait formuler ainsi :<\/p>\n \n

\n

Toute surface (relativement) plane exerce une force d\u2019accumulation (\u00e9gale au carr\u00e9 de l\u2019hypot\u00e9nuse de sa surface multipli\u00e9e par l\u2019\u00e2ge du capitaine, sachant que la baignoire se rempli \u00e0 la vitesse de 5 litres par seconde et que le plombier viendra entre le 18 et 28 f\u00e9vrier, \u00e0 quelle heure le TGV Paris Lyon arrivera-t-il en gare s\u2019il n\u2019est pas victime d\u2019une panne et la baignoire aura-t-elle d\u00e9j\u00e0 d\u00e9bord\u00e9 ?) sur les objets \u00e0 proximit\u00e9 qui n\u2019auraient pas d\u00e9j\u00e0 une place clairement d\u00e9finie dans l\u2019univers. Et plus elle en attire, plus cette force s\u2019accro\u00eet, pouvant mener jusqu\u2019\u00e0 la cr\u00e9ation d\u2019un super amas instable qui pourrait mettre en p\u00e9ril la trame m\u00eame de l\u2019univers tel que nous le connaissons.<\/p>\n <\/blockquote>\n \n

Ou, dans sa version abr\u00e9g\u00e9e, \u00e0 destination d\u2019un lectorat non scientifique :<\/p>\n \n

\u00ab Plus c\u2019est plat et plus c\u2019est proche, plus \u00e7a devient vite bord\u00e9lique.\u00ab<\/p>\n <\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
