I know I have been less than impressed even a little derogatory with Aspden. Today I have read a commentary by him dated April 2007.. and perhaps I may have been a bit too quick to judge. This does not mean I support all his contentions, some of which may even be non original and contaminated by others, but what he has posited as regards the Sun and the overall effect such has on cosmology /astronomy, is worthy of consideration in the context of our geocentric cosmology. Despite my abhorrence of quantum physics, ( one tends to reject what one does not understand) I need to study his work further with emphasis on what he actually means when I find conflict with his terminology. He seems to give a very good case against the Suns energy being thermonuclear fusion.. Will be in touch.... Philip
