I forgot how fun it was to look at mountains upside down. If there's a difference between stalagmites and stalactites, what do you call a mountain that's hanging down?

Man, I could charge for a sight like this. Any takers? You just know you wanna see it upside down from just the right spot.

You call it a mountain.

[hangingdown]

That's pretty stale, if you ask me.

[withonestone]

There's never been a need for a word for an upside-down mountain.

[hangingdown]

Sounds like that's a problem that needs some fixing.

[withonestone]

If you are the one upside down, the old term will still suffice.

[hangingdown]

What if you're the one upside down, then?

[withonestone]

It would either be by your abilities or thanks to a suitable amount of rope. The former statement still applies.

[hangingdown]

But what if the mountain is upside down? We'd need a name to call it, and it's better to plan in advance.

[withonestone]

I rather doubt it will come into play here.

[hangingdown]

Can you really be so sure that a mountainite won't show up around here?

[withonestone]

..."mountainite"?

[hangingdown]

Either that, or mountite. What do you think?

[withonestone]

I think the physics that would be necessary to cause such a thing would be highly irregular and largely impossible.

[hangingdown]

Not if it's floating upside down.

[withonestone]

Rock - much less the amount necessary for a mountain - doesn't generally float.

[hangingdown]

You just wait until you find a tounmite.
