Obviously,<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

this guy<\/a> is screamingly insane. Ok, that might be a bit harsh… what he is<\/p>\n

is simply confused and ignorant. There is way, way too much wrong with the<\/p>\n

"theory" on his website to go into… go read it and be amused.<\/p>\n

Of course, it isn’t just the theory – it is that in an odd way he is a sort<\/p>\n

of "everyman" trying to cope with a complex body of scientific work he hasn’t<\/p>\n

got the intelligence or education to really get a handle on. Armed only with his<\/p>\n

"common sense" and whatever he remembers from grade school he is working hard on<\/p>\n

keeping the universe something he can understand by [[banging the rocks<\/p>\n

together]].<\/p>\n

Anyway – one portion worth discussing because it seems almost reasonable at<\/p>\n

first glance is basically a sort of low end example if "sign flipping" – the<\/p>\n

idea that if you reverse all the signs on all the operations and data in an<\/p>\n

equation it will basically work out.<\/p>\n

\n

"Common sense should tell you that there is nothing in space that can<\/p>\n

cause a pull on anything except space itself. There is no such thing as a pull<\/p>\n

of gravity. However, the whole of space is filled with energy waves going in<\/p>\n

all directions. If there were only one object in space it would be bombarded<\/p>\n

equally on all sides and would not be pushed in any direction, but when there<\/p>\n

are two or more objects in space they would shield<\/p>\n

(protect) each other and this would cause them to be pushed together.<\/p>\n

If you have a problem with the above I can help you. Just get in touch. This<\/p>\n

explains gravity, but I believe that gravity is complex, so there is more that<\/p>\n

I will explain." – <\/p>\n

well on<\/p>\n
