Okay, he wasn't an idiot. I just wrote that to get you attention.

Einstein may have been a genius in his field but that doesn't mean he
was an expert in other fields, like theology and religion. He could
have been (and I believe he was) and idiot insofar as religion is
concerned. There's no way in hell he could have studied enough of the
source material to reach any informed conclusions. It takes as much
study to become a theologian as it does to become a physicist. Not
many people in our day and age can be true multi-disciplinarians. So
why all this shit about whether Einstein was an atheist or not, as
though whether he was or wasn't carries any weight? It's like asking
the Pope if he believes in string theory. If he does it must be true
etc etc

And the biggest idiots of all were the ones who posed the question to
AE in the first place as to whether he was an atheist or not. I'm
surprised old AE didn't just pop off: "Oh shut the f*** up and let me
do my science."

Do you think that four years of studying dogmas at a seminary gets one
any closer to ultimate truths?

The Pope is held to infallible on matters of faith and doctrine, but is
string theory doctrine? Believing in it does take a lot of faith!

Einstein had a lot of opinions outside of science, but most people
never gave them much weight.

Thanks for you fine remarks, Captain General nightbat.

The coffee boys with all their silly awards have not been able to keep
their act together very well lately. Just goes to show their lack of
organizational ability.

Dr. Einstein and Dr. Tesla were visionaries of their times. That is
why their admirers study their every word. But still the scoffers try
to find fault wherever they can.

Yes, the Earth Science Team Officers are having to keep well apprised
of all the apocalyptic changes that are going on nowadays on this
troubled planet. Coffee boys run about clueless to their pending fate.
But we await FOC.

Atheists want to claim Einstein as one of their own despite his
proclaiming that God doesn't play dice. Yet Buzz Aldrin sensed
something surely divine after seeing for the first time the far side of
the Moon, and proclaimed, "goodnight, good luck, a Merry Christmas and

I've read this many times in many places... about
how Einstein was an atheist, a "non-believer". And
then you read about the God/dice/Universe thing,
and wonder if maybe the guy was more agnostic
than atheist?

Myself, i have no scientific evidence to support it,
but i was raised with a strong faith in a power that
goes way, way beyond any power of mankind. I
personally like this idea because i find it impossible
to accept that humans are the summit of life in the
Universe.

So it troubles me that such obviously and awesomely
intelligent, perhaps even wise people such as Einstein
and Asimov were atheists. Einstein found it totally
unacceptable that a benevolent, omnipresent and
omnipotent God could have possibly allowed the
atrocities of the 20th-century holocaust. And Asimov
based his personal atheism upon good, solid scientific
research and reason.

And i often wonder if this bothers anybody else?

Yes like all profound Earth Science Team members and our
Officer oc with his refrigeration applied model which our Officer Zinni
enjoys so much. Einstein was looking to close the gravitational loop via
that same analogy. Trying to close the loop using one Universe is not
solution easy for first cause frame is missing. Hence attempts and
logical need for outer Universe frame extrapolation as Wolter's and per
oc's explained extension.

The deep field objective understanding however must be grasped from what
can be theoretically deduced, observed, versus field propensity. Latent
field memory discovery is the key pointing to missing frame acuity, for
it, perfect uniform momentum, has never existed in our space-time. And
the deduced reverse is true, the Universe in present necessary disturbed
momentum state therefore could not exist.

Explaining observed cosmos immense inputted applied energy momentum
differential impulse signal is necessary to complete loop cycle via
natural means with none available. Officer oc attempts just such a
monumental deep field theory task via theoretical outer Universe Wolter
engine presentation.

See Officer oc for site particulars

The nightbat presents an objective unified field view from explained
missing frame perspective not dependent on extrapolation but discovered
field latent memory remaining only confirmation peer dependent on co
researcher confirmed proof or disproof of presented premise. In other
words my model lends to observation confirmation and/or nullification,
while Officer oc's for Wolter's depends on beyond observable Universe
dependence, non observable reality, or nullable imaginary based model.
Very much like String theory needing more and more dimensions, branes,
and Universes to try to close the loop but without plus/negative
confirmable evidence for same.

Once you realize the amount of shear required applied inputted non
uniform energy momentum needed to create one physical mass particle
versus the entire micro/macro field base reality you can begin to grasp
absent immense missing natural first cause impulse. Remember the energy
field is reciprocal unto itself, (Newton), therefore applied field
impulse requires reciprocal equal or greater impulse to required law via
disclosed observed field latent memory (nightbat) pointing attempts
return to pure uniform momentum. Multi differential energy states do not
create or self alter themselves from base energy pure momentum. They are
reciprocal to directed or latent redirected applied impulse.

I'm as convinced of this as i am certain that
Einstein applied his math to the task and found
that, while E = mc^2 on the electromagnetic
radiation scale, on the scale of the dynamic
flowing of the SPED, energy "E" was equal to
"m" multiplied by a far greater velocity.

Bill and i have been tossing around the nonmath
idea of E = mc³, but what if the actual energy
of flowing space is equal to "m" times the speed
of gravity? (or more accurately, the speed of
space itself)...

E = m(c x 2 x 10^20)²

or...

E = mVg²

...where Vg is the so-called "speed of gravity"
(actually the speed of flowing space)?

And it would come to me as no surprise, after he
saw what his EM equation had led to in Japan, that
Einstein would have withheld not only an equation
for space-energy conversion, but also the distinct
fact that space was by no means made of "nothing".

He was perhaps hoping that by the time this was
independently discovered, humankind would be
much older and wiser than those who waged war
in the 20th century.

As was just stated in another thread, what this is describing is _speed
of gravitational charge_ which is functionally instantaneous
irrespective of distance. This is distinct from velocity of spatial flow
itself. Space flow into Earth's surface, for instance, is equivalent to
escape velocity, or 11.2 km/s (about 7 mps). Same with any celestial
body; speed of inflow at surface datum is equal to that body's escape
velocity.

Admittedly, Wolter's CBB model depends on intuitive extrapolation(IE),
that is, deducing the nature of the unseen from a
pattern/principle/planform seen consistently and universally throughout
nature, and presuming the unseen is more likely to embody that same
pattern/principle/planform, than not.

The minute you recognize space for what it is, a dynamic,
sub-Planck-wavelength field of stupendous energy density and
hydrodynamic pressure, the next question must invariably arise: What
manner of 'Engine' is capable of driving and sustaining so energetic a
Field? What sort of 'compressor' and Master Oscillator rings out the
'tones' whose sub-harmonics give rise to the Periodic Table? The CBB
model with its centerpiece Primal Particle provides just that
'Engine'/compressor/'Master Oscillator'.
>Very much like String theory...

Nay, nyet. While string theory does posit some sort of vibrational
underpinning, it remains clueless as to the 'Engine' driving it. Also,
it depends on ad hockery such as 'eleven dimensions' to try to
mathematicavlly unify gravity and the strong nuclear force under the
VSP. It depicts gravity some sort of emanation from those 'higher
dimensions'. The dynamic is no different than geocentrism's use of
'epicycles' - applying perfectly good math to try to validate a false
premise.
>...needing more and more dimensions,

Yep. More and more fixes, fudges and kludges.

Whereas the CBB model needs no such ad hockery. Without ever holding
unification as an objective, it seamlessly unifies gravity and the SNF.
It unifies relativity and QM. It explains the mechanism of gravity and
gravity-accereration equivalence. It provides the next
expansion/extension of special relativity to include _density frames_ of
the spatial medium, holding c constant in all density frames just as SR
holds it constant in all inertial frames. It explains 'c-dilation' as
the drop in lightspeed _as observed from the external frame_ across the
expansion of the universe, with c remaining fixed *locally* in the
absence of any density gradient. No constants are ever violated, not the
Lorentz invariance, the fine structure constant, the lightspeed
constant, or any other constant. And the CBB model doesn't require any
'higher dimensions' beyond our familiar three. It simply replaces the
'Void' with the SPED and one primal Flow driven by one Force.

With its numerous sidebars providing so much collaboration and
corroboration while explaining the one simple mechanism behind all of
physical reality, and without needing one iota of math to do it, what if
perhaps the CBB model really *is* true?

Do you mean that he was prejudiced or that others were prejudiced
against him? It works both ways. I assume the former. Then yes, he
must have experienced much prejudice even though he was a genius
physicist. Sad but true. And the holocaust proves that.

So is the way of the witless in his spacetime.

This proves shit. An opinion or a statement of fact does not
necessarily carry any hatred within it. Wow, what an astronomical
jump! Light years in fact. I say that I believe he was an idiot in a
particular area of study and you say that I harbor hatred toward him.
Not so. I admire the man insofar as he was a physicist. But he wasn't
much of a philosopher and others should not make him out to be one
just because he excelled in one area. Bach (n. 1685) and Mozart
(n.1756) were also brilliant within their fields (music), but their
opinions on, say, what Newton (n. 1643) was doing in physics, would
and should carry no weight at all.

Okay, I shouldn't have called him an "idiot" because that is
considered pejoritive. Does "dumb" sound better?

Jeez! Calm down. Switch to decaf and let's ponder this issue
like intelligent people. I am quite educated, BTW.
Your reaction leads me to believe that you think religions
which claim to preach morality, peace and hope, in fact bring
intolerance, violence and destruction. I say, that by far the biggest
examples of intolerance, violence and destruction in human history are
those wrought by militant atheism, underpinned by bogus (I'll get to
that shortly) science. Mao, Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot come to mind.
Religions might not bring perfection, but Atheisms have 100 times
worse track record.
At an empirical level, these 4 regimes must represent a good
85% of the atheist regimes (weighted by number of citizens) in
recorded history (the atheist phase of the French Revolution may well
account for another 2-3% which was about as bloodthirsty). Atheist
regimes are actually quite rare, representing say 20% of the regimes
(weighted by citizens) in recorded history. The only theist regime I
can think of which practised/allowed mass murder of its citizens on a
comparable relative scale was in Rwanda (representing say 0.1% of
regimes). So at an empirical level, the association between atheist
regimes and mass murder is very strong - far worse than smoking and
cancer.
What is the mechanism? Mao, Stalin and Pol Pot all claimed to
be Marxists and Marxism "the science of history" was the essential
underpinning ideology that allowed them to perpetrate their massive
crimes. The essence of Marxism is dialectical materialism and a denial
of the existence of God - indeed Marxism was specifically developed as
an anti-Christian philosophy. Hitler's Nazi-ism was admittedly far
more confused than Marxism, a sort of anti-Marxism which was based on
the popularised Darwinism of Haekel (the Dawkins of his day) and
picked up the widely-held German view that "survival of the fittest"
was a scientific and moral principle (and that, of course, the Germans
were the fittest!).
But more fundamentally, if you don't believe in God it is very
hard to believe in a morality that will constrain you when you have an
enormous amount of power. Christian leaders, however powerful, know
that they are "under God" and that they do not have ultimate power,
but are themselves under judgement. Atheists, manifestly, do not. An
absence of constraints on the abuse of power leads, understandably, to
an abuse of power.
Incidentally, these 'darwinian' views were very common in German
intellectual an military circles in the early 1900s, and very widely
held by the German General Staff. It was this that shocked Vernon
Kellogg, a Stanford professor who was posted to the headquarters of
the German general staff during the period of American neutrality in
World War I and was shocked to find German military leaders, sometimes
with the Kaiser present, supporting the war with an "evolutionary
rationale." They did so with "a particularly crude form of natural
selection, defined as inexorable, bloody battle." His subsequent book
"Headquarters Nights" helped bring the US into the war.
I obviously don't suggest that all atheists are immoral - many
smokers do not die of cancer. But atheism and power is an
exceptionally dangerous mixture.
I wonder if you consider humans to be animals - most atheists do.
And that view does lead to the rivers of blood of the 20th C - not in
all cases, but in enough to cause massive concern, and over 100M
deaths.
Of course there are ethical atheists. I certainly respect
them. However, false ideologies do not only correspond to erroneous
beliefs. They can also lead to terrible actions. The Church has not
been free from this kind of error (crusades, inquisition), but the
twentieth century atheist regimes are truly frightful examples.
I really get tired of the bullshit criticisms of Christianity
as a carniverous beast on society. An unbiased examination of history
proves otherwise, as well as demonstrates how atheists "conveniently"
forget Stalinism et al from their diagnoses of society's ills.

The speed of gravitational charge, hmm..., or
do you mean "change"?

At any rate, this would make out the speed of
functional gravity to be...

3 x 10^8 x 2 x 10^20 m/s, or

6 x 10^28 m/s, or

60,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 m/s

That's 60 OCTILLION meters per second!

That's 200 quintillion TIMES the speed of light!

From our frame of reference, we can almost lose the
word "functionally" in "functionally instantaneous"!

Using the Sun and Earth, we know it takes 8.31
minutes (498.6 seconds) for light from the Sun to
reach us. If we divide this by Vg, we get a figure of...

2.5 x 10^-18 second

...as the time it would take for the Sun's change in
gravitational information to reach the Earth.

Now here's where it gets interesting... suppose there
is an object out there about one light year away. We
can't see it because it's, say, a brown dwarf and does
not emit/reflect light. How long would it take for a
change in its position to be gravitationally noted by
our Sun?

Using round figures, this comes out to be...

9.5 quadrillion meters / 60 octillion meters per second, or

0.16 picoseconds!

And isn't it another tickle to realize that any such
influence on our Sun by the nearest stars of the
Centauri group would only take about four times
as long to reach us!

I wanna do one more just for the hell of it, sorry...

The center of our galaxy is roughly 30,000 light
years away. How long does it take the influence
from this tremendous gravity well to be felt by our
Solar System? At the speed of gravity set forth by
Van Flandern...

4.75 nanoseconds!

I'm tired... who wants to figure how many ergs in

E = mVg² ? <g>

I wanted to discuss that last part separately.

How does space know to decelerate to any given
speed as it enters the gravity well of any given
mass? It slows down to 7 miles/sec at Earth's
surface, and this figure is greater for, say, the
planet Jupiter, and it's a smaller figure for, say,
the planet Mars.

So how does flowing space "know" to slow down
to a certain speed for any given amount of mass?

And how slow is it going as it enters an atom?

Hoo boy. You're still not "gettin' it", dude. have you read any of
Lindner's or Shifman's material? It covers all of this in depth.

The flow _accelerates_ as it approaches/enters any gravity well. Think
river aproaching waterfall. Think venturi.

It _speeds up_ to that velocity.

It "knows" to _accelerate_ by the hyperpressurized state of the medium,
the 'supra-cosmic overpressure' or SCO. The _rate_ of acceleration is
determined by the size of the 'sink' (mass). Mass and 'flow sink' are
synonymous. _Rate of acceleration_ is synonymous with the Einsteinian
"curvature" of space.

>..7 miles/sec at Earth's surface, and this

>figure is greater for, say, the planet

Yes, because Jupiter represents a bigger collective 'sink', and Mars a
smaller one.

>And how slow is it going as it enters an

It reaches its _maximum_ acceleration and velocity there, as the inflow
transitions into what is termed the strong nuclear force (or 'hadronic
flow' as Lindner calls it).

Clearly, you are still not 'getting' the diff between *acceleration/
flow rate* and *speed of charge*, as evidenced in your other two posts.
The instantaneity of the 'speed of gravity' is _not_ referring to
acceleration or flow rate. In the analogy of electric flow in a wire,
the flow rate of individual electrons is very small, while the *speed of
charge* is instantaneous when you throw the switch (read: "functionally
instantaneous" for the nit-pickers). Similarly, gravity's influence is
instantaneus irrespecrtive of distance and irrespective of acceleration/
flow rate into any given sink (mass).

Then there's the matter of *gravitational waves* (one of db's favorite
subjects:-)). These are undulations of the spatial medium that *do*
propagate at c, believed generated by massive gravitational events like
supernovae, binary neutron star mergers, binary BH mergers etc.
(surrogate evidence for GWs is found in the Hulse-Taylor pulsar if you'd
care to Google it). But 'gravitational waves' propagating at c are not
referring to *speed of gravitational charge* which is instantaneous. And
gravitational waves are not the smoothly-accelerating flow which is
gravity. Think of ripples on a smooth lake or smooth river when you
throw a rock in.

To Ya All (Florida talk) If the speed of gravity is instantaneous that
tells you its already there. It relates to being inside a space ship
going at light speed. You would cover all the universe at once. For
gravity to cover the universe and its actions felt at once it would have
to be a grid connecting(going through) all there is in the universe. I
have posted this thinking in some of my past posts. I compare the grid
like a spider web. When a fly hits the web the spider instantly feels
the vibrations,and goes directly to that area of the web. Hope oc you

'Fraid not 'ol chap. Say there's a massive eruption on the Sun, massive
enough to make the whole orb quiver like Jello. It'll emit information
in the form of gravitational waves which will still take 8.31 minutes to
get here.

Again, a change of *gravitational status* will propagate at c as
gravitational waves. This has nothing to do with the instantaneity of
gravity's influence across distance.

Again, instantaneity/'speed' of gravity is not the same as gravitational
waves.

We've beat this stuff to death about gravitational waves
before, Paine. The term itself is a misnomer and has caused untold
confusion. Although *related* to gravity and caused by gravitational
events, GWs are not gravity. Properly defined, they are _spatial
acoustic pressure waves_ analogous to sound waves in air. They are
predominantly _londitudinal_ pressure-rarefaction waves (db's
hystrionics notwithstanding:-)). Einstein's original GW model which db
recites was predicated on a rigid, immobile 'ether'. As such, the model
had to predict transverse wave polarization, as through a solid. But
when the medium is recognized as fluid, compressible and expansible, the
wave is predominatly longitudinal, as through gas.

Yes, Bill, i *am* getting it... i'm getting that there
are some seemingly profound inconsistencies in all
this. To wit:

> The flow _accelerates_ as it approaches/enters any gravity well. Think
> river aproaching waterfall. Think venturi.

Okay, in science the word "accelerate" actually can
be positive or negative. And of course, a "negative
acceleration" would be a "deceleration". I'm taking
you to mean that the flow of space is a positive
acceleration as it approaches a gravity well. Space
"speeds up" as it enters the mass of a planet or a
star.

This would imply that space is flowing more slowly
out among the stars, and perhaps even more slowly,
kind of like molasses out between the galaxies and
galaxy clusters. Here is an inconsistency as i see it.

Astronomy's observations indicate that space does
expand, and it may expand at speeds that far exceed
the speed of light without going against the special
theory of relativity. Recent observations appear to
indicate that the expansion of space is accelerating.
All this tends to make me think that space outside
our Solar System, and especially outside our Milky
Way Galaxy, is flowing and expanding at extremely
high speeds.

So it is more consistent to think that flowing space
must SLOW DOWN to enter galaxies, stars and
planets.

Now, i realize that this seems inconsistent to you.
That because the escape velocity decreases above
the Earth's surface, this must mean that the speed
of flowing space is lower above the Earth. Also,
since physical objects fall at an accelerating rate,
it would seem that the flow of space is causing this.

I'm still thinking about these inconsistencies.

Here is a major inconsistency in Wolter's argument.
Space speeds up a lot going into the Sun. Space
speeds up less going into Jupiter, even less going
into Earth, and even less going into Mars. So the
less mass involved, it would seem the less space
speeds up. So why isn't it going its SLOWEST speed
into an atom, the smallest mass of all?

Another thing i'm thinking here is that if space
ultimately flows into an atom to use the atom as
a point of return to the source via nonlocality,
then it seems to me that space would be going
into the atom at its slowest possible speed so as
to be right on target for the nonlocality switch.

No, no, no, Bill. A gravitational WAVE may
propagate at c, but the gravitational CHARGE
propagates at speeds in excess of c x 2 x 10^10
(which does BTW mean that my figures are off by
several magnitudes since i used c x 2 x 10^20)...

No argument, but again the waves are not the
same as the charge. The speed of the waves
may very well be c, but the speed of the charge
is "at least" 20 billion times c.

If GWs are not gravity, then why are you using
them to propagate the gravitational changes? The
gravitational changes are propagated at speeds
much greater than c. If this were not true, then...

You know Bill, thinking about gravity as a flow, it has interesting
parallels to electricity: the velocity of the flow being the current,
and the acceleration being the potential or voltage.

As I pointed out once before, ones relation to the velocity of the flow
could explain the time dilation in gravitational fields. If this were
true, it could be that at the center of Earth, where there would be
little flow, there would be little time dilation. This could be a
testable difference from standard curved void space GR theory.

However, even if it were proved to be true, they would find a way to
explain it with their standard theory. It's just like they found a way
to explain the Sagnac effect with relativity, after it was first
presented as a disproof of relativity. And take black holes: GR
objects, all perfectly predicted by GR, right? Never mind that the
black hole-like objects they are detecting today, emitting vast amounts
of energy and shooting streams of matter into space are nothing like
the invisible black holes they were predicting back in the 70's with
GR. And never mind that Einstein himself did not predict their
existence. Yet they are totally GR objects, right?

Well, one can certainly draw parallels with electric flow. But voltage
would be equivalent to the pressure gradient causing the flow (in fact
voltage is referred to as 'pressure', potential, or electromotive force,
the 'E' in the Ohm's law formulae). Flow rate, as you say, would
correspond to amps, or 'intensity', the 'I' in Ohm's law.

What you say about acceleration is interesting, because in a CRT or an
Xray tube, a high voltage ('pressure gradient') accelerates an electron
beam, causing it to strike the target (anode) at high energy. In fact
the beam is accelerating exponentially as it hits the anode.

Well, Wolter had no 'argument' per se. He pictured the proton as a
microscale black hole analog replete with its own 'event horizon'. It
would be my conjecture then, that the flow hits the speed of light as it
enters the nucleus, just as it does when it enters a BH. Wolter pictured
the subnuclear domain as not part the external universe since it does
not *directly* participate in the Unified Field of Spatial Flows 'out
here'. That's why he excluded the Weak force, seeing it as more of a
'subset' of the Strong force.

Regarding the disparite inflow velocities you cite at the surface of
planets, suns etc., you gotta think of these bodies as aggregate
collections of protons. The bigger the aggregate, the bigger the
collective 'sink' it forms, and the greater the inflow velocity. When
the aggregate is sufficiently massive to form a BH, the inflow velocity
then equals the inflow velocity of its constituent protons, which is the
speed of light.
Wolter didn't go into this much detail, but i'm
extrapolating here from his basic model of the proton as a microscale BH
analog.

What recent observations? Presumably you're referrin' to the 1a
supernova dimming, which is observed at extreme cosmological distances,
not in our immediale galactic environs. If such expansion were occuring
'locally' (ie, out to a radius of a few billion LY or so), we oughta be
seeing excessive dimming and reddening locally, which is not the case.

The trouble in trying to get profound original thought to final
understanding of the clueless is that they are normally too busy
comparing copied notes and search engine findings of what's known versus
what is novel and beyond their mental grasp.

oc Push for gravity seems to fit better than pull(sometimes),and even
the Earth coming up to the apple answers a hard question,but both get
shot down because they create lots of questions they are unable to
answer. Wolter was not the first to kick this idea around. Attraction
over distance even the great mind of Newton would not touch. Now Brian
Greene uses virtual particles to give the message for objects to attract
or repel. That begs the question is QM gravitons virtual particles? Is
this the reason they can't be detected? Is Scheck and Schwarz with their
theory on gravity in the Planck realm the true source of gravity? I
think so bert

Good point Bert. But you gotta parse the observation carefully, to
clarify the distinction between *electric flow* in a wire and _electron
flow_ in free space, as in a vacuum tube. In a wire, the individual
electrons move very, very slowly, while the *speed of charge* thru the
wire moves at the speed of light (minus the 'velocity factor' making it
about .77c depending on the material. That's why a radio transmitter's
antenna is cut to the velocity factor).
Whereas in a vacuum tube, individual electrons *are*
liberated to flow and accelerate freely thru space.

Though superficially similar, Electric flow with its associated speed of
charge, and electron flow are distinctly different critters.

But as you said it isnt true. You're a bunch of no hoper social misfits
without a physics qualification between you, producing a mishmash of
poor scifi and even poorer science (though I taint the word by even
mentioning it in the same sentence as your moronic ramblings) which has
no congruence with reality at all.

But you keep on washing nightbats ass with your tounge AA- I guess
double-A stands for Asshole Astronomer? Even if it did, the second part

But you evade my questions really well so I shall repeat.

What is space flowing in?

Does shape need a container? Besides, the same question can be asked of
your flowing space. However curved space (through the equivalence
principle) explains away gravity through the field equations. You
somehow think there needs to be a container for space.

Would you like me to point you to a GR primer? Sean Carroll's website
has an introduction to GR.

To add a further note of explanation - spacetime curvature into a fifth
dimension (outside the three of space and one of time) means it is just
curved in that direction. Asking outside of that isn't relevant because
we are restricted to space and time?

I doubt it very much. Considering you don't even know SFA about

From AA, replying to Bert:

>GR model.

As stated before, i would certainly like to believe this. Whereas Henry
Lindner has roundly denounced him as a charlatan and a fraud for
allowing the 'no medium' doctrine to take over science while knowing
full well better. That certainly would qualify him as an idiot (the
original title of this thread).
I believe more and more that he had to know the truth
but *deliberately* couched it in the "curvature of space" metaphor.
After all, the math does work, as proven over and over in GR. By
couching the truth this way and depicting space as 'nothing', and then
spending his last 30 years "searching for" the unification of gravity,
he very convincingly cemented in stone the 'no medium' doctrine.. like a
mama bird feigning a broken wing. But it was an act of supreme wisdom,
not idiocy. It's gotta be one or the other, there's not much room for
middle ground here.

>Perhaps Einstein was closer to
>discovering the Wolter refrigerator model >of the universe than I had
thought!

Actually the freon cycle analogy was not Wolter's but (ahem) an oc
original.
As related numeroius times before you (AA) came to the
NG, Wolter jestingly used the terms 'Big Hoover in the sky' and 'the
ultimate Tokamak' in describing his centerpiece 'Engine'. He also used
the analogy of a jet engine running on a test stand. You hear the whine
of the turbine and the roar of the exhaust and see the whole process at
work. Meanwhile, a tiny dust speck gets sucked thru the engine,
undergoes combustion and is instantly shot out the exhaust as a particle
of carbon. It felt a 'bang', a BIG bang as it went thru the engine. From
the limited perception of that particle, it only knew of the 'bang', not
the larger, whole process at work.. thus illustrating the restricted
'inside' referance frame of the 'Singular BB' model vs. the larger
'outside' frame that sees the whole Process.
The freon cycle analogy was a refinement of the 'jet
engine' analogy. And db says oc has no original thought but just parrots
Wolter. Hrrumph. :-) oc

Please Commander don't encourage quacks like Puddles to
continue to make noise in this or any other net serious science
newsgroups, we have enough interruptions with the regular clueless auk
ones. Ducky needs to find more birds of his feather at the park or zoo
not on one of the most Worlds respected science newsgroups on the net.
His affinity for fantasy is noted so maybe he can get a part on the
Sesame Big Yellow Bird show they like quacking ducks over there.

On a more serious note how are you holding up with deteriorating
conditions at your duty station? Understand thousands are left without

Captain's log---Present date
Local Earth time Ind. coordinates
Indy Base One code RtoC123

A subject on the net calling himself Puddleduck of true particular sub
species unknown attempts to make conversation with me and my Profound
Science Team Officers. His IQ is extremely low and base life form like.
He states he has an application in but not where for some acknowledgment
of purportedly PhD (Please help Ducky). He also claims being of birth
knowing subject of astronomy without knowing his still infantile speech
patterns and zero knowledge of subject matter give him away as a
clueless baby. Apparently Officer oc's discussion with fellow Science
Team Officers on space flow theory has disturbed this planet declared
duckling greatly.

Computer data recorder make note: subject duck enjoys laughing as an
disguised human and is not normal for a self admitted duck bird.
Something is fishy perhaps further iterations of his quacks will bring
light to true form of this mixed up Earth net subject.

How dare you speak of our perfect logic Officer Zinni that way
you befuddled Puddleduckling! I'll have you know Officer Zinni has more
science knowledge in his pinky quacky then you have in all your mixed up
bird brain.

Commander and Officer Zinni please disregard any and all quacks from
this sub species for he refers to baby parrot like brain reliance. Oh
the humanity! when will these clueless wonders stop flying in here to
try to rule the roust.

Kook capitals noted and quacky a so called un-approved
application for PhD (Please help Ducky) like net Hammond is not science
background or laurels. Edison and Tesla like Patented useful inventions,
Team member profound net presented deep theories, and/or actual earned
accredited higher learning scientific degrees, profound literary and
scientific Peer Awards, who's who in science, accepted applied advanced
knowledge, working models, any astronomy shared discovered knowledge and
Team provided helpful links, co-member scientific community awareness
and acceptance is. Who's ducky and why doesn't this parrot repeating
duck brain know his way home? Oh! did we hurt your feelings, Officers
please call a duck ambulance right away we can't have duck tears messing
up our science group. Just not politically correct and what will our
Sean friends think. By the way, sorry, no Glow T-shirt for you ducky.
Get in line with all the other failed science Team cadet hopefuls. Next
opening date to reapply is August 2012 if we're still here. Officer
Warhol will either accept your re-application at that time or make you
walk the plank.

Caution---Science Officers converse with this Puddles quacky duck at
your own discretion. Puddleduck welcome to the Captain's stowfile, you
earned it. Say hello to our little clueless friends in there.

I hope his grammar and spelling on his dissertation were better than he
has displayed here, or approval of any PhD is doubtful!

Double-A Best to keep in mind Einstein thoughts(ideas) came out of him
when he was at the prime of life,and that was 100 years ago. Hard
for us to read his mind at this spacetime. SR was not all his thinking.
He just put things together nicely,and used good math. GR showed how
clever he really was. It has such original thinking. Why he did not get
the Nobel for GR is a mystery. Go figure Bert

Well Duckster, us dunderheads seem to believe that *descriptions of
effects* do not equate to _explanations of causation_. Field equations,
geometric coordinates and 'metrics' describe something. They do not
_cause_ it. A speedometer readout describes something. According to your
logic, twisting the speedometer needle should make the car go, and
twisting it further should make it accelerate. Us dunderheads believe
that you, db, OG, Scott et al lack even the most basic comprehension of
the difference between descriptions of effects and _explanations of
causation_.. and that as such, your worldview is Quack-ery. Har har. :-)

Matter tells space how to curve
Space tells matter how to move.

Don't project your faulty logic on me.

And your belief is worthless as it has no grounds in reality.

Please tell me your physics qualifications, this should be good for a
laugh. Or are you another of nightbats space cadets?

Congratulations. You've just proved you completely misunderstand the
point of Einsteins field equations

Matter tells space how to curve
Space tells matter how to move.

The fact you're an anti-relativist puts you the as the quack. And as a
hint, I chose this obviously fake name for a reason. Its a good sign of
a kook if they start saying things like "duckster"...

Apparently you have a very superficial knowledge base. You seem unaware
that Einstein fully endorsed the reality of the spatial medium until
well into the 1920s before inexplicably flip-flopping to the 'no medium'
idea which then grew legs and became the bedrock axiom of science.. all
in the space of scarcely 80 years. Can you explain the flip-flop?
The 'ether', as it was known to Einstein, was depicted
as fixed and immobile, like a rigid lattice. Yet the existance of such a
medium was disproven by Michelson-Morley in 1887. He FINALLY rejected
it, and rightly so. But why did he continue endorsing it for 35+ years
before doing so?
Why, instead of further investigating a medium that's
FLUID, compressible/expansible and amenalble to density gradients, did
Einstein suddenly "throw out the baby with the bathwater" and go with
'no medium'? Why did he instead adopt the "curvature of space" metaphor?

>Matter tells space how to curve

Oh. But if space is 'nothing', what's curving?

>Space tells matter how to move.

Sounds like Abbot & Costello in "Who's on first?" :-)

Who's an anti-relativist??

Scientists often try various ideas before settling on the one that
works. The whole early 20th century science was already in flux thanks
to Maxwell....
