surely discussions on the physical space around us are always relevent to truth seekers, our culture and forward path are defined by the world we think we inhabit,<br>not only does the post tie into the musings of mr dolphin and SRI but it ties into the recent post on wilbert smith which i read here (buggered if i can find it though),<br>wilbert tells how the aliens explain that our ideas of physics are just plain wrong,<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Crete/2546/smith.html">www.geocities.com/Athens/...smith.html</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>"For one thing they told us that the velocity of light was not a constant. As a matter of fact they seemed to be rather pointed in their statements that light doesn’t travel, it is. And we told them that from our point of view it appeared to travel with a certain definite velocity of 186,000 miles per second. They said that’s the way it looks to you because you are looking at it from a region having certain conditions, certain influences, but they said if you were to go away from this region you would find that a different set of circumstances prevailed. Another thing they told us cast a great deal of doubt on our ideas of time. They told us that time wasn’t at all what we thought it was, namely what might be marked off with the ticking of a clock, that time was, in fact, a field function, the result of there being a universe."<br><br><br>for a genuinely alternative model have a look here,<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.spaceandmotion.com/summary-faq-wsm.htm">www.spaceandmotion.com/su...aq-wsm.htm</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--><br><br>"The Metaphysics of Space and Motion and the Wave Structure of Matter is founded on One Principle which describes One Substance, Space, and its Properties as a Wave-Medium.

Nowadays every Tom, Dick and Harry thinks he knows it, but he is mistaken. … I consider it quite possible that physics cannot be based on the field concept, i.e., on continuous structures. In that case, nothing remains of my entire castle in the air, gravitation theory included, [and of] the rest of modern physics.
