Ok..ok..im hitting the hey now, iwill postulate a retort (lol) as i slip into slumber..But a quick note before i go, a good example of matter warping space can be found in the experiments with distant stars being acculted by large masses such as planets, other stars, galaxies and of course, your old friend,,,the black hole..or do you mean to say that the pressure wave is what causes the difraction??in a sort of particle capture mechanism??hmmmm...no sleep for me tonight...
cheers
ps..have you read hawkings latest book...the universe in a nutshell??you probably have, but if not, i will loan you my copy...you'll get a kick out of it
