    If it weren’t true you would be experiencing a net acceleration due to the imbalance in the forces acting on you.

    What’s really interesting is figuring out WHY mechanistically it’s true. I had to rethink the whole thing this morning, because it really is pretty nuts how much weaker gravity is than the electrostatic force.
