No, it will leave the geometric interpretation as an emergent approximation. Remember even NASA uses Newtonian gravity for all their mission planning and control, in spite of general relativity. Brent I was expecting your objection. That's your interpretation of what an unknown theory will imply. I figure, that if a graviton is implied as a force transferring particle, we'll be back to how forces are modeled for the strong and weak forces.

That's a good question, but I think it'll take the quantum theory of gravity to answer. *I doubt it will happen. If it did, it would invalidate a geometric interpretation of gravity, which IMO is unlikely. AG* -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
