Some years ago, I wrote a Straight Dope Staff Report called [Can Elephants Jump?](http://www.straightdope.com/mailbag/melephan.html)
Shortly after that, my father, who is wont to refute me anywhere and everywhere, wrote a follow-up, [Elephants Can Jump!"](http://www.straightdope.com/mailbag/melepha2.html)
Guess what the name of David Feldman’s new “Imponderables” [book]([http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0060539135/qid=1100225019/sr=8-1/ref=sr\_8\_xs\_ap\_i1\_xgl14/002-4555770-2064857?v=glance&s=books&n=507846](http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0060539135/qid=1100225019/sr=8-1/ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i1_xgl14/002-4555770-2064857?v=glance&s=books&n=507846) Do Elephants Jump?) is called?
That’s all. Carry on.

So? What does Feldman say?
