From a broadcast engineering forum I read comes this bit of humor:
"Too many folks in the summer heading for mountaintop hikes.
More mass farther from from center of earth will make the planet
slow down due to conservation of energy. Same mass traveling a
longer distance in the same amount of time requires more energy
without which the compensation is to slow down. :-)".
Referring to ... well now I don't remember what this was a reply to, but I thought it was funny, and appropriate to share here.

Yes, but when they come back down from the mountaintops, the earth speeds back up again....
