I dont think it changes shape, but the tides etc are caused by the moon, and apparently, the gravitational pull of Jupiter....Nothing to do with my anus :D

Hang on, are we still answering the "is the earth round" question? I've lost track :laugh:

I think that would be Guam but it is not (as you mentioned) a Sovereign State. The Island of Yap is the closet island and is a Federal State of Micronesia
After the fact that the answer has been accepted, on the map it looks like it is closer to New Guinea, Indonesia, and The Philippines as well :s mokin:

If by country you mean land: Guam is Northeast, Yap is Southwest, Papua New Guinea is South, Japan is North :)

Apparently if you lie on the beach in Ecuador you'll be further away from the center of the Earth than at the top of Mt. Everest...
How flattened is the Earth, to the nearest .1 % ?

Looks like folks are already getting bored with Donkey boy's question. I'll verture a random guesstimate that the polar meridian is 96.5% that of the equator, so the earth is 98.9% spherical. And I did all that without a lick of math!!!

Hey gang, how's it hangin?
