Yeah, the "fish contemplating the 'Ocean' " metaphor has
benn oft used by people other than Wolter, f'rinstance Jerry Shifner.
Unfortunately he uses the archaic term 'ether', ignoring the fact that
the historical 'aether' was deemed by the old theorists to be static and
immobile, incapable of flow. See- www.river.org/~jerry/telling.htm


From the above reference ...

"The challenge for the scientific community is to pursue this line of
reasoning and attempt to construct a mathematical depiction of this model. "

Considering that this guy thinks that the scientific community is to stupid
to have considered this possibility, is he likely to believe it if he is
told that his ideas are crap???

And, why doesn't he hit the books himself and try to come up with a
solution???


In private correspondance with Shifner and Lindner i have urged them to
abandon that 'E' word but they insist on using it, thus shooting
themselves in the foot and putting to sleep their credibility. oc
