Do you disagree with the predictions of either of these theories, with their underlying philosophical world-models, or something else?
First, I do disagree that gravity is an effect of the curvature of spacetime. That does nothing to determine the E-M-G triad that Dr. Brown described and that we have been looking at for years and "trying" to fit within the classical sciences.
Second, I have read some of Einstein's Unified Field Theory of Electromagnetism and Gravity, and it seems valid, however it also seems that it was retracted due to the Michelson-Morley interferometer experiments that failed to provide evidence of ether (aether) drift.
Third, and for me the most important point is that gravity as a constant of G is measurable as a variable depending on when and where the measurements are taken. Wasn't that a lifelong data collection process of TTB? And "the set" as a "gravitic communications device" must then operate on principles that uses gravity as an energetic medium through which information can travel.
So I do not agree with the classical model of gravity at all, and will continue to look at gravity as energy and intimately related to E and M.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
As I have said many times on these forums, I am not looking to poke Einstein or Newton in the eye about gravity or the mathematical models that have allowed engineering of devices based on them. No, what I saying is that while all of the calculations can provide practical utility value, it still lacks an explanation of anomalous or phenomenal results in experimentation and those "hiccups" as Mr. Peetee calls them. What I am saying is that as good as the math and science is, it falls short of the goal of unification of forces. And since those over at the History Channel are saying that garvity is not energy, it would appear that even Einstein must yield to the "facts" presented thus far by those distinguished skeptics at THC.
On the other hand, I feel that Einstein did not retract his UFT because it was wrong, but because he felt that humanity was unable to have such incredible power and act responsibly with it. And so we return to where we once began on another forum thread called "Hidden, But Why?" and the answer seems consistent with those posted previously. Kind of like that line used by Jack Nicholson in "A Few Good Men" when asked to tell the truth...
Because "You can't handle the truth!"
And that is where we are now. Can we now handle the "truth" or must we still exercise patience and restraint, and hope the rest of humanity catches up in time?
