I Saw Several Sources of Systematic Error

On my bike ride in to class today, I had to pause and watch what I assume was a physics recitation. Two undergrads were at the base of one of the taller buildings on campus, with a dozen or so students on the roof. They were tossing pumpkins over the edge, and timing the gourds' fatal plummets. It looked like quite a bit of fun. It's too bad I didn't have time to ask who their instructor was, because now I'll never know what their results were.
