    If the effects of acceleration (and I presume you accept Einsteins equivalence principle of gravity = acceleration) can be found in the behaviour of matter, such as the settling down of a platter, the fact that things don't fall up but are g-forced down. Then it follows that matter resists this expansion .. else why the noticeable effects ?

    Resistance to expansion is the noticeable effect ?

    In which case why is my earlier statement that gravity (or some force ?) is driving the expansion of space, but matter is clumping and clustering within space, being subject to the electro-nuclear forces which overcome gravity, why is this not a valid view also.

    Putting aside your own view for the moment, can you negate my view ?

    By George, Greg, I thiink you're on to something. Doesn't appear that your view need be put aside. Can't say that either view excludes the other. On this road less traveled it seems our courses are about parallel and not mutually exclusive. It still appears that the 'electro-nuclear forces which overcome gravity', are gravity, in comparative microcosmic moments of accelerating expansion (Where the 'present' gravitational forces are much more dense and intense).
    Can't say as I disagree with you, Greg. Might this be a matter of interpretive semantics?

    Re: Effects of the expansion of physical matter with space.

    Rascal ... I think your taking the mickey ...

    However ... is this close to your view. The parabola is a 'flat plane ' or 'straight line' thru space and in an eternal expansion from time ??

    Yes, Greg. I think you've found another way to present a geodesic straight line manifest in the 'curvature of space-time' (a much misunderstood and otherwise mystified term).

    And because of this particular presentation of a 'geodesic', gotta thank ya sir.

    Linguistics___ain't it a bitch...?

    couldn't though ,energy , be thought of in terms of heat or temperature.

    just a thought!

    North ... I think you have it in reverse.

    how so ? what have I got reversed?

    ( it would appreciated if this window of " not enough charactures " stop poping up it is anyoying)

    Re: Effects of the expansion of physical matter with space.

    North ... when you post a reply, apart from included 'quotes' you must have at least 10 characters of you own, otherwise the system concludes that you have not entered a reply.

    Heat, and Temperature, are labels we have for the collective result of atomic collisions ... To my way of thinking they are just descriptors.

    When you suffer sunburn, the actual physical effect you feel is the result of solar particles colliding with 'your' particles and breaking down the electomagnetic forces binding 'you' together.

    This random billiard ball effect is driven by the contained energy of the particles involved. We interpret this as 'Ouch, I'm sunburnt'.

    fair enough , but it is anoying none-the-less sometimes a simple response is good enough. anyway.

    the resultant of , inotherwords.

    but what causes the solar particles to move in the first place? heat
