Title text: 'At the stroke of midnight, your brother will be hurtling sideways at an altitude of 150 meters' is a regular physics prediction about your nonmagical trebuchet, whereas 'you are cursed to build a brother-launching trebuchet' falls out of the Lagrangian.

All physics is magic if you don't understand it.

I seem to recall a role playing game called "Science the Gathering" being quite popular back in the day. Does anyone else remember it?
