I HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO INDULGE MYSELF Well you can easily read about what was being said. Both Newton's and Einstein's theories have been thoroughly tested. Newton's laws work perfectly at low speeds, but go wrong at high speeds, and Einstein's theories corrected this. Einstein's equations turn into Newton's at low speeds. You have a closed mind. and do not follow logical arguments. Scientists have open minds and are prepared to change their theories when there is evidence that they are wrong, which you are not prepared to do! Alan Griffin
