harmony girl,
I'm presuming to respond to your post here.
Nodland and Ralston indeed claimed that light in the cosmos to a minute degree slowed down, further extrapolating apparently that the universe was anisotropic; putting out certain physicist colleagues no end. Their earlier like-minded brethren had fought a long losing battle against the Big Bang theory (smacking of creation, as it does - they've explained that away, now, of course), while today Nodland and Ralston's critics seem to have the same faith-driven conviction, not only that there is no God, but that consequently, according to their lights, the cosmos must be equal in every direction.
However, this is from the Physicsweb site:
http://physicsweb.org/articles/world/10/6/5/1 :
"However, some critics like Ronald Bracewell and Von Eshleman from Stanford University have been willing to give Nodland and Ralston the benefit of the doubt. They have submitted a paper to Physical Review Letters proposing that the additional polarization observed by Nodland and Ralston could be to do with the absolute motion of the Sun through the cosmic background radiation, which is also towards Sextans. Nodland also says he has received several e-mails telling him of theoretical papers that show how anisotropic cosmologies are permitted within the framework of general relativity."
Also, I think Heisenberg's UP and the space-time continuum are mutually confirmatory. But the business about the absolute nature of light being the One Without A Second of Vedanta, the ground of all being, the one stand-alone reality, to which our universe and any other universes, the whole of creation, must logically be subsidiary and contingent, is an incontrovertible, 'a priori' inference. The testing, the science, was completed long ago; only recognition of the failure to follow up the logic is still pending."
