Factual errors: When bringing Penny's furniture up to her apartment, Leonard and Sheldon lay the box on the stairs and Leonard states "Now we've got an inclined plane. Force required to lift is reduced by the sin of the angle of the stairs..." This is incorrect, as the force required to lift increases with the sin of the angle, and would have been better stated as "Force required to lift is reduced by the cos of the angle..."

Quotes:

Leonard: Did it ever occur to you that not everyone has the compulsive need to sort organize and label the entire world around them?
Sheldon: No.
Leonard: Well, they don't. Hard as it may be for you to believe, most people don't sort their breakfast cereal numerically by fiber content.
Sheldon: I'm sorry, but I think we've both found that helpful at times.

Second episode of "The Big Bang Theory" is another funny one worth watching

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

In a nutshell, Sheldon and Leonard are moving a heavy box into Penny's apartment which they discover is a mess. Sheldon, being a narcissistic clean freak attempts to clean it up but stops when Penny arrives. He later comes back while Penny is asleep with Leonard reluctantly helping. When she finds out, Penny bans them from her place. After talking with the quiet one of their friends, she changes her mind...This was another pretty funny episode of "The Big Bang Theory" that had a hilarious exchange in the beginning between Sheldon and Leonard when, after inviting Penny for a Superman marathon in their apartment, they debate how Superman could or could not logically rescue Lois Lane from a helicopter fall in mid-air. Loved also the physical comedy involving them moving the heavy box up the stairs to Penny's apartment. Well worth viewing between "How I Met Your Mother" and "Two and a Half Men". Hope CBS keeps this one on the air for awhile!
