YEE- HAAAW
Get 'em Paine. Make the VS'er "fill in the blank", put
up or shaddap.

How 'bout explaining the _ mechanism of causation_ by which "attraction"
literally POWERS the stellar collapse that powers the fusion that
rebounds as a supernova blast. How does "attraction" crush a massive
star down to the neutron star of BH state? How does "attraction" POWER
the far more energetic and *sustained* process of a quasar? By golly,
let 'em step right up and fill in the blank_________.

Typo

Oc writ,

How does "attraction" crush a massive
star down to the neutron star of BH
state?


Should read , ..`or' BH state.

Damn, gotta remember to proofread stuff.

Let us not forget Newton's statement:

"That one body may act upon another at a Distance thro' a Vacuum,
without the Mediation of anything else, by and through which their
Action and Force may be conveyed from one to another, is to me so
great an absurdity, that I believe no Man who has in philosophical
Matters a competent Faculty of thinking can ever fall into it." - Sir
Isaac Newton

Unknown to Newton in his day is the *flowing, accelerating medium of
space* as that which does the "Mediating". He would be pleased to know
that the FS model of gravity brings his observations of gravity full
circle and fully validates them, including its instantaneity
irrespective of distance (gravity's "speed of charge", not to be
confused with velocity of spaceflow).

IIRC, Einstein hated action-at-distance about as much
as Newton did. And spent the bulk of his life trying to
figure out how the heck it took place. It was quantum
mechanics with their introduction of the graviton xfer
particle that finally gave physics what they thought,
and *still* think, is the "Mediator".

happy holidays and...
