<DIV><FONT color=#000080 size=2 face=Arial>I've sent you the paper in question
twice: once 25 Aug '16 in response to your posting of the same date, and once
specifically in response to your request for same on 23rd April '17. Let
me know if you can't find either one of these and I can send it
again.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000080 size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000080 size=2 face=Arial>With regard to refraction of light by
gravitational fields*, this follows directly from slowing of electromagnetic
waves by such fields (a commonsense consideration akin to swimming through a
dense liquid - but this is an interference effect); the bending is directly
analogous to causing a vehicle to turn by rotating the wheels on one side slower
than those on the other (the same effect also causes climbing plants to curl
around their supports, rate of growth being inhibited on the side that's
touching something).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT color=#000080 size=2 face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>

style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial',sans-serif; COLOR: navy; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">I'd
refer you once again to my paper 'Cosmic System Dynamics: A Cyberneticist's
Perspective on Gravitation' (Kybernetes Vol 40 issue 9/10, Nov 2011, pp
1319-1330). In this I show in some detail how the phenomenon referred to
as 'gravitation' can be fully explained in every detail by simply recognising
that attractive forces between opposite charges and repelling forces between
like charges are NOT precisely equal (for unit charges in each case). A
tiny difference between these two effects (for which there is NO
scientific reason why they should be identical) - attraction being
infinitesimally greater than repulsion - gives rise to an overall attraction
between 'ponderable masses' precisely in accordance with every recorded
observation. This explanation could well also shed new light on those
effects attributed to 'dark matter' and 'dark energy' - another couple of
what could well be regarded as 'fiddle factors' comparable to Einstein's
'cosmological constant'. Like Einstein's CC they could, rather, point to
a feature of the cosmos that we have overlooked or wrongly
assumed.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN
style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Arial',sans-serif; COLOR: navy; FONT-SIZE: 10pt">If one
looks at it from this very simple perspective, gravitation is far from being
mysterious - it's simply a 2nd-order effect of 'electrostatic'
attraction/repulsion (which is itself an artefact of electromagnetic wave
interference between non-linear configurations of such waves, i.e.
particles of matter) - gravitation, as another separate 'force' in its own
right, doesn't actually exist.</SPAN><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>

completely confident that I fully understand the objections, perhaps they
have to do with the following point. Ontological chages occure at (or
to) the source of E&M interaction. Perspective changes happen to (or at)
the sink of E&M interaction---not just sentient, passive observers.
The actual, real efffect from the source on a sink is physcially
altered by the relative (deleayed) position and motion of the source.
For one thing, it is Gaussian diminished (i.e., reduced by 1/r**2).
In this sense, time-dilation, space-contraction are real effects (but
only as far as the sink is concerned!). Sentient observers, such as
those emphasized by Wolf, are no more that a collection of E&M sinks.
So, the "obesrver" is taken into account in this
formulation.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
