Thanks a million for this great picker-upper! Regards, Spiral Path

You are most welcome,Spiral path,many a time when I have needed encouragement
a few helpful words put a spring back in my step,we all need a boost now and then I am
no exception.Just pass it on to the next one who needs it,thats all I ask!

Hello, bottomlander -

Thanks a lot for those kind words. I feel honoured by them.

1) Sorry that I hadn't read your article(s). The following is just my wild guess on this topic inspired by you. Variable gravity G seems astonishing. However, its percentage of variation should be so small that its effect can only be (and better to be) tested by peaks of earthquakes. Our Earth is a big mass ready to us. And we have enough data on earthquakes. (To employ other masses needs too hgih precisions and might have erroneous interpretations.)

As I am going to try to explain in one of my next blogs, a variable G will actually affect the whole Earth. An increasing G will actually make the Earth shrink (thus leading to a crumpling of the Earth's crust and subduction earthquakes) and a decreasing G will make the Earth expand (thus leading to earthquakes on the spreading mid-oceanic ridges and in rift valleys).

Yes, we have excellent and publicly easily accessible earthquake data for the past 100 years or so and these only enable me to make my evaluations so accurate, especially since every earthquake has a different signature (i.e. other parameters, like the direction, dip and latitude of the main fault plane, all have to be taken into account). Needless to say that for this reason alone these evaluations take thousands of hours of computer time, especially with a small and outdated machine like mine. For good predictions I most definitely need government support.

Actually, there are many things weirder than Variable gravity G. For example, scientists are perhaps still testing whether the speed of light varies thru long time or not.

Yes, I wouldn't be surprised at all if those scientists will find that the speed of light, too, is variable.

Also, before the concept of gravity being established, if someone pointed out that our Earth was spheric, not flat, there would be too many negative reasons to kill that simple/obvious truth (as revealled long time ago by ancient Greeks already).

Correct. But at least nowadays people who contradict the "voice of authority" will only experience ridicule and humiliation (like I did) and no longer get killed (like it happened a few hundred years ago) along with their own new theory.

2) I am now using the model of rain-like frequent bombardments as the mechanism of gravity. Masses act like shields for another mass to recieve less bombardments and thus attraction resulted. If dark matter or the likes have zonal differences, perhaps when Earth passing different zones periodically, peaks of rainy bombardments should be resulted also. Regards. bottomlander

Yes, I have heard about something similar like you describe some 20 or so years ago, so I guess it may appear plausible. Well, we'll see how it develops - and good luck to you if you continue working with this concept.

Regards, Spiral Path

S.P.
Actually “G” is a constant; it’s our reference frame that is variable as the universe expands and our location in the universe moves. Determine this information and you can calculate “G”.

You should start a thread on this subject so it is not in Robert’s “News and Announcements” thread.

We can't fault Bottomlander for trying to copy someone else work, but I don't think a simple paragraph explanation of gravity true as it might be will win you any type of scientific accolade.

Dear Robert,

Up to now the forum is already ALIVE! Not just an ordinary but an energetic one. I am quite confident and think that main part of the members would agree, wouldn’t they?

By the way, I agree with Bottomlander& Mkirkpatrick comment about how mainstream physicists approach to TOE. For my addition opinion, the worst thing is that they totally ignore philosophy; the process of “cause and effect” (the fundamental definition of philosophy). How could someone who works in science achieve TOE with out philosophy? How could they trust in mathematics (created by man) than in physics - science of nature (created by god)?

One obvious example that reflects their idea is the concept of “three-dimension curve space”. All physicists accept that they can not visualize how the space is curve! But they think that it is true ONLY because of mathematics and experiment. Of course we accept in experiment and mathematics, but it doesn’t mean that it is true that space is curve. In my paper “Completed Einstein general theory of relativity”, we will easily see that we could understand “how space is curve” by using scientific concept (not just an idea which was blamed by mainstreamers). Please wait for few weeks

Sincerely,
Nimit Th.

theunify, my Hero! You're the most hardworking, intelligent, creative and powerful Judge in the whole World!

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I am only here to Judge myself, you Bottomlander, like all aspiring minds are a hope of THE future and I feel blessed to be in such kind community such as TOEQUEST and it's my good furtune to be able to contribute some of my birthday funds to this site on this marvelous day,

VM Nimit,it is good to see you back with us,please return again very soon.

Since we're reminiscing the early days of ToeQuest, do any of you old timers remember the Hot Line forums? They were offered as a way to allow certain entities to access ToeQuest to express their point of view on the TOE. I offered a hot line forum to Time Travelers, Space Aliens, Demons, and God. You can get an idea how it looked in the Internet Archive. It's dated Oct 7th, 2003. I decided to take it away since it mostly attracted spammers and I was running low on memory on my hosting service. I wonder if I should bring it back

BTW, we have a 4 year anniversary coming up!
