>Imagine, if you will, that you lean a fencepost against our boulder.

That's not what I meant. Maybe I used the word force wrong. What is meant is this:

What if a person was pushing the rock with the strenght of his muscles. Then resting, then pushing again, and so to infinity.

Would the person move the boulder eventually? Does it move it a little bit with each push? And if not, where does this "pushing energy" go?
