So one of them is wrong. We've been arguing about it for about a century
now.
Not really. Way OT, but do not confuse gravitational *waves* with a
gravitational *field*. For a pedestrian explanation see e.g.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_gravity , chapter "Static fields".

Many thanks for that last link, I had not seen that before, and MSN
reports at the time were
extremely thin on details, with enough obvious lack of understanding on
the part of the
writers, so that I promptly forgot about it as knowitall blather.
Typical of MSNews in 2017, and its far worse now.
Thank you Karl. Now the question remains, how the hell did Katherine do
as well as she did?
Take care & stay well.
Cheers, Gene Heskett.
