So any help you may give me and others regarding these, would be appreciated.

Best to you,

Ok, well bear with me a few days, and I'll try and provide some information for you. Inflation's nice: it solves a lot of the problems that the big bang theory creates (I'll give a summary of those before we discuss inflation.)
