While this may be at odds with the interpretation of
GR on the "speed of gravity", it is a fact. If it's not, and space is
a "void", then we're stuck with "fossil fields", 'virtual gravitons',
virtual photons, angels, imps, and Sky Pixies. oc


Bill,

The currently accepted models of most of the forces use virtual particles,
yet you continue to ridicule the idea without giving a better explanation.
As for gravity, what is this thing that's flowing? Is it subject to
turbulance? Is the gravitational attraction an object experiences related to
its shape, in the same way cars and aeroplanes are?
How does the model yo advocate explain the Casimir effect?
The simple fact is, qed is one of the fields where theory and experiment
agree to a higher level of accuracy than most others. Yet it relies on
virtual particles. How?
