Hi Bert it is so wonderful to hear from you.
My approach has been not to look up to folk or look down upon them.
I recall when I was on about push gravity the cosmological constant was site as his biggest blunder but it seems not so much these days.I would say it was his greatest insite.
The irony was having spent years trying to work up a hypothesis for push gravity I find that Le Sage presented the idea in 1745.
I still can't do the math but GR works well so I doubt if I could present a better model and I can't think how I could make a better prediction etc.
The attempt I made to geometrical describe space did tell me however that describing empty space was difficult and I could see GR did that very well and way beyond anything I could offer.
I would still love to have an answer as to how gravity works.
Again so good to have you back.
I noticed your great astro shots recently its great to see you are doing so well.
