Howdy Iceman,
Interesting play on ratios.
Apart from a few numbers being debatably incorrect good article, 'cept for
one thing. Footnote 6. While I think I understand what "The cosmic sentinel" is getting at, this 'considered' theory suggests that the speed of light (1x) and the speed of expasion of the universe (say 1.2x for arguments sake) are cumulative? ie. 2.2x light speed? I don't believe so. The speed of light would simply be expansion (1.2x) minus light (1x) = .2x! Expansion wins. If the universe was collapsing, then the light would reach us, but still at the same speed. If we were talking about special theory, with light always going away from you at the same speed no matter your speed, then this is an effect of "Time Dilation", something light is not affected by, purely perception.
