querious,
Leaving out your foil hat and all that, in terms of solar system gravity specifically, what are your objections again ?

What do you mean by "leaving out your foil hat and all that"?

My most obvious objection is the one I just stated in my previous post.

Oh, and Happy New Year to all!!

Do you mean your post about "utterly clueless" Wal, and charged foil ?
My question was to "solar system gravity specifically".
Think larger.

Yes, that one.

Could you please elaborate? Think larger about what?

Ummm, for the third time, larger like a "solar system".
You know, gravity of the sun, gravity of Earth ?

Do you have ideas, or only criticisms ??

I did, after actually watching his presentation I called it a 'load of nonsense', and still do. You were totally on it with the charged foil, and between us we came up with many examples that his hypothesis fails to explain.

For now, only criticisms.

Why do I need to "think larger"? Sounds like you're trying to muddy the waters.

Just try to explain why dipole-caused gravity wouldn't affect a charged foil.

I have explained it in detail and at the time he conceded. I don't think the boy means well.

Hi willendure,
I meant nobody on this forum who also regularly corresponds with Wal, such as Crothers or Talbott.

Because the criticism is lackluster.

For Wal this is work in progress, there is nothing wrong with trying to figure how this "gravity" thing works, whatever it is. If you have a better idea present it somewhere, write a paper. This thread is going nowhere.

This response is lackluster. Given the biting criticisms that Wal has for mainstream science, it's the height of hypocrisy to present his own theory of gravity that makes no sense, no predictions, and doesn't pass the sniff test, at least as well as it can be understood by scientifically minded people, and not defend his theory. It's sad that the defense of this theory was left up to Dave Talbott, who's the expert in mythology, not science.
This thread is going nowhere.
Well yes, because the only person who can defend it is Thornhill. Others have tried in his place, but they seem to understand it no better than anybody else.

:?: Did you see/hear Mr. Thornhill statement in the YouTube's Space News video 'Einstein: The Mythology of Celebrity' (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zELjb6iDjL8), at 2:30:

"... the subtle longitudinal electric force — also known as gravity?" :?:

If you think our objections are lackluster, then you simply don't understand them.

Like I said before, telling me to come up with my own theory of gravity is utterly lame as a defense against these objections.

Wal certainly doesn't present these ideas as a "work in progress". He seems pretty assured in his presentations.

Excellent.
Wal's assessment and criticism of the pseudo religious teachings by Albert Einstein are accurate and quietly shared by many in science, though most hesitate to admit it. Proving that gravity emanates out of the lives of the energy tangles that we call particles, and is electric in nature, will allow us to put GR and SpaceTime in the museum.

Not sure if this is relevant here but have you seen this:
