Give me the e-mail address of Apollonius; I need to ask him about his model. The plenum explains ALL the motions of bodies immersed in it, including those which mod sci has classified as due to gravity , inertia, etc. Read again my sentences below, which you quoted yourself. I assume the WAF can also be the IAF, correct?
