A well known physics problem notes that when dropped, toast always lands jelly side down, while a cat will land on its feet. In published studies toast was strapped to the back of a cat with the jelly side facing away from the feline. When dropped the binary system strives to overcome mutually exclusive events. The obvious outcome is the cat and toast must remain hovering in the air. Since both feet and jelly must land downward, but in this system one must land upwards.
The point is that perhaps similar forces are at work to leave 914s suspended in mid air on jack stands. No one remembers how they got there and even fewer can predict when they will return to earth.

Wish me luck. Have to change the oil and adjust rear camber tomorrow so I can see red rocks. Already have the four sitting on the lift, way taken apart and being welded. So, jack stands it must be.
