1. Inventing imaginary albit creative solutions does not constitue a demonstration of validity in either in the method use to arive at those solutions or the substance of the solution itself!..................aka making comments does not constitue addressing the questions or issues raised! 2.Grav is the only source of pressure for the tides it is also the only force that cause water to "seek it's level". The earth is a sphere therefore the level it seeks is symmetrically spherical unless of course gravity is pulling some parts ( the tidal bumps) more then other parts due to the differences in point mass and berry centers.......ummm!? .....The tides do not act symmetrically around the earth they are lumps and bumps on the earth that only closly follow the timing of the sun moon and even at that they are.....the postion of the sun moon dose not change the fact that even if both sun moon are on the same side the tidal bulges are on both sides of the earth....what dose all this mean ...regardless of any "hydraulic or wave action" (not discounting the importance of it) but the force that creates the disparities in the oceans that allow "hydraulic actions" and is still the humble gravitational one. It is the only force out there to cause anything to "seek it's level" & "water feeds" is gravitational accelerations......therefore..no matter how we attempt to explain it no matter what acrobatic mathematical/conceptualization formulation you attempt ...In MS you have a accelerated tide that is not consistent with the assertion that bodies in free fall cannot detect accelerations wrt to the bodies they are in free fall too.....because no matter how small the grav deviation is if it were not there then in MS you could not explain what we observe in the tides...... All the talk about "U tubes" , "seeking the level", "water feeds, "point masses" and "berry centers"... is ALL still just silly and vain attempts at conceptual acrobatics!?....In MS the tides are accelerated due to grav and differently from the rest of the earth even if the effect is amplified by "other considerations"...They are accelerated wrt the exact same bodies that the earth is in free fall to....thus accelerations in free fall can most certainly be detected even in MS...Thus GTR is completely erroneous at it's very best.....!? The whole idea is utter absolute wilfully ignorant nonsense.!..The very idea that we could not expect to detect the acceleration in free fall but because grav is pulling all equally but we observe the tidal effects due to differential grav pull. Regardless of what other actions (wave or hydriodic) are out there to "amplify" the effects if the grav accelerations were not different to start with then there would be nothing to "amplify"..!!!??? You do not make the logical contridicions disapear by being "more creative"........!? You guys can promote tidal concoctions of nonsense all day long .....nothing anyone has put forward explains anything excpet how creative people can get in their imaginations!? Merely telling us all the various ways things could work will never ever: A. make the logical contradictions go away..unless either the tides are not caused by gravity or gravity does not work the way MS Claims....there is far more evidence that gravity does not work the way MS claims then there is evidence that it does! B.validate your wild imaginary solutions even if they were true with a logical path to arive at them!....You MUST have a demonstratable logical path to the conclusions for it to be reasonable or scientific ...not just assume the mechanics of the entire universe and everythting in it (Damn the observations, we will just reinterpret them in light of our assumptions.) and call it "reasonable" because..it fits your world view ...and ......" well it could be"!? When you get some "science" behind your imaginations then by all means lets explore those ideas..but untill then your only engaging in "wishfull thinking"...not logical paths to reasonable conclusions based on any observations!!!!..your basing eveything on assumtions about physics not physics there is a difference!........... These are just empty imaginations that have no possibility of validation nor are they even "falseifiable" .....For crying out loud they are not even considered "science"according to the great touted " Scientific method"!! Thus far the only "Science" (observations & demonstratable experience framed in logic) or a comparitivly substanative solution as well as a logical path to that conclusion(s)/ solutions anyone puts forward has & is always avoided like the plague... ..why?!....The power in ideas/theories is not it's ability create or understand but rather their ability to either support or destroy world views.....I am a destroyer of entire worlds & that does and should scare the living hell out of people. However, like dumb cattle many seem content to stampede with the rest of the slaughter herd and go right over the cliff strait in to it! ----- Original Message ---- From: philip madsen <pma15027@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: geocentrism@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2008 12:11:06 AM Subject: [geocentrism] Re: Tides Allen also said..

Yes I have also wondered about this lag of time. But when you think about it, we have at least two time controlling factors.. First the grav "field" ("field" here is a nonsense term) , which may be light speed, but which I suspect is instantaneous, and I favour this, for another subject later, which in any case is really short and not a factor in four minutes. The delay, if you and I are correct in that the water feed to the wave crest comes from either side.. is in the simple dynamics of hydraulics, or water flow.. From our previous correspondence: The tide is like a wave form. Water flows to both sides of the crest of this wave. The ocean as a whole like the atmosphere must rotate with a general speed similar to the solid earth. Imagine the turbulence if this was not so. Agreed Whilst I accept your agreement with the latter part, re the rotation, I am not absolutely confident about the flow to the crest coming from both sides of the wave because the wave appears to move around the world.. To comprehend this it is necessary to go back to wave mechanics, and look at a normal tidal wave.. Why do they call it a toosarmi? For that matter why a Tidal wave.. if it aint caused by the moon, but by an earthquake.. No matter, as this wave crest moves across the ocean at incredible speed, no water moves with it. We have a peak rise to the crest where the water is energised to rise up on the front .. And I suspect it might be the opposite on the the trailing side. I am thinking about the fact that just before the wave hits the coast, it sucks all the water out to sea. This is a volumetric factor due to water depth, and not part of our exercise.. Its the wave in the ocean which we are dealing with.. and I still think it possible that energy is pushing water to the crest on the trailing edge, which cause water to back up on the leading edge, supporting my original statement Water flows to both sides of the crest . Tell me what you think! Look forward to your reply.

Some have claimed the moon does not cause the tides. Well this raises more questions.. If the moons gravity is not the cause, then certainly something related to the moon and its position above, is the cause. I'm going to think on that. I would agree with you that it is related....just not as directly as many suppose..i explain my thoughts in greater detail further down Also we have the anomaly of the pendulum under the lunar eclipse which NASA though claiming attention to it seem to be avoiding it, or have no answer. What is importaint to note about this observation is that it is the best posible configuration for the sun an moon to exert a combined gravitaional influence on the tides....and yet rather then making the pendulums get lighter due to grav acceleration toward the sun and moon ...it does just the opisite...it makes them get heavier...thus we can see the only experiment to date that has ever been able to distinquish the effect of grav as pull or push, demonstrates a push effect not a pull effect. Secondly: Note, that the tides themselfs do not corespond exactly with the suns/ moons timing although it is within 4 min but always lagging behind....If the tides were being pushed rather then pulled then we should expect to see the tides advance the sun/ moon not lag behind.... also even if gravity were acting at the speed of light ( i do not aggree) but even if it did....there is still a inconsistency in positions and the lag times..any solution would involve harmonic anylisis...ummm..well, why not start with that in the first place? Thirdly: The effect or the strength of the gravitational effect is certainly not strong enouph to push or pull the tides either way.....simply the detected gravitaional effect is too week to have any significant direct affect on the oceans to create the tides we observe... Further, in my own writings re gravity/inertia, to Allen, I find seeming contradictions about this whole business. Is it just a matter of scale and distribution.. I read others mathmatical analysis, and I acknowledge that I am not gifted in maths, and cannot comment specifically, but I have experienced enough to know that a mathmatical analysis is only as true as the data inputted.. Leave something out and it is in error. And that is always on the cards. A physicist who understands nature, should be able to explain movements without resort to complex formulae. Absolutly correct! In fact it was Herbert Dingle that stated:"...in the language of mathematics we can tell lies as well as truths, and withing the scope of mathematics itself there is no possible way of telling one from the other. we can distinquish them only by experience or by reasoing outside the mathematics, applied to the posible relation between the mathematical solution and its supposed physical correlate" Science at the crossroads pg 33 also found in volume 1 GWW pg 50 At this moment I am having doubts. If I was correct about gravity in the effects on free fall, affecting every particle equally in the space vehicle, then how can the water be pulled up separately and further than the rest of the Mass earth? Shouldn't the whole thing stay together and dance a wobble with the moon? Just a bigger spacedhip. YES Was it Regner, who said that the solid world is spinning under the tides? Someone did. I thought it at one time. This cannot be true, and I mean true in the conventional system The tide is like a wave form. Water flows to both sides of the crest of this wave. The ocean as a whole like the atmosphere must rotate with a general speed similar to the solid earth. Imagine the turbulence if this was not so. Agreed In geocentricism: Just a small final word , as regards geocentrism, and how far we can take the Biblical claim to the earth shall not move. If the earth is absolutely still, then the moons variations of the elliptic, must not cause any secondary orbital/translationary movement to the earth. What that does to the barycentre, the math man can tell us. But I feel, intuitively that if the earth was FIXED the moon would have to eventually form a true circular orbit. Wouldn't it. I think this gets to the aether as it rotates as a whole ...but with moving currents like currents in a streams..with individual edies and such even though the stream still has a overall direction of flow..? This is where the aether , the universe , and independent motions, (of the moon.) make a complex problem as regards dynamics. (from our viewpoint) One motion of the moon around the world almost daily, is not an individual movement, but rather a locked in with the "aether sphere" rotation, and therefore, not like a normal real independent movement as with similar orbiting moons around other solar system planets. In addition the moon has its own independent motion against this universal movement. What we see is the resultant. But what we feel inertially is the standard 28 day orbit. Just as what we feel inertially with respect to the earth, is a 24 hour rotation. The two systems are dynamically equivalent as regards inerial properties. But the tide follows the moon, which means that the universal rotation of the stars, aether, and slipping moon, all contribute in some way to the tides. I agree ..but since I think gravity is best explained by a vibration within the aether as sand particles vibrating on a vibrating membrane......I would tend to think of the relationships ( positions of sun/moon) in terms of how changing the postions of the furniture in a room will change the harmoics of that a room.... vibrations will squez as well as shatter and do all the things we observe but where the furniture in the room is will determine where and to what degree the effects are most and least noticable..... the gravitaionl vibration resonates in the aether but the aether is rotating around a fixed earth.. I have much to retreat into my shell to think about.. comments welcome.. Guiding lights. Philip ________________________________ No virus found in this incoming message. Checked by AVG.
