OK, maybe you're right. It's possible all the CGs generated by all the masses involved average out to produce something akin to the smooth space-time curvature predicted by GR. Since neither of us has done the maths, who can say? > Einstein and I reach the same conclusion. > Hmm. He reached it via something like 13 tensor equations which can be solved to give exact results. You reach it via some vague wordy description... whether the universe is in fact a mathematical structure or similar, it sure *behaves* like it is, so personally, out of these approaches I would go for the maths and the exact predictions, which can actually be used for useful stuff like GPS and looknig for distant planets.... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
