    I really enjoyed this segment. It’s something that i’ve never thought about. Why is the bubble round is an interesting topic? and also… Does the little bubble push into the big bubble or does the big bubble push into the small one. From my point of view, thats such a tough call; But then again, I don’t know much about a double bubble.
