It certainly disproves Cavendish and the accepted models. Why are you so obstinately clinging to error?

show me a testable, falsifiable, peer reviewed projection with less than .75% deviation.


Why do you seem to think that less than one percent deviation is the same thing as being one hundred percent false??

Neither will a conversation with someone that doesn't understand what he is talking about and refuses to learn. I guess we're at an impasse.

Lol, yes, Ski, that Phd thesis is clearly the nail in the coffin of the Cavendish experiment.  Nevermind the fact that it mentions doing diagnostic tests and ways to improve the experiment in the abstract itself, I'm sure the full paper will agree with your conclusions.

The diagnostic tests proved the error was not an anomaly. Further refinements may bring a more accurate result better explaining the failings of current theories of gravitation.

That's not what the abstract says.  I don't like saying 'I don't trust your biased interpretation' but i really don't.  Without seeing the full article it's asking a lot for me and other people to just take your word for it that this thesis proves Cavendish wrong.

You don't have to take my opinion, you only have to read the abstract  ::)    It simply proves that all current models of gravitation are flawed. Surely, even you won't find that difficult to believe.

A diagnostic experiment, to test for a change in the force at a fixed distance upon the interposition of another mass, demonstrated that the errors were due to uncontrolled variations in the gravimeter tilt. When the tilt was controlled, the same diagnostic experiment yielded a null result at the level of 1.8 parts in 10 to the 4th power which is the resolution to be expected from a repetition of the inverse square law test.

Breaking Newton's so called law of universal gravitation is no indictment of a theory.

My inability to transmute lead into gold contraindicates Newton's wild beliefs about alchemy, for example - does that make me any more able to do so?

Isaac Newton was a committed Satanist whose theories are part of a deliberate deception regarding Earth-shape, motivated by his megalomaniacal lust for power and celebrity. Gravity is one of the most outrageous myths ever created.

The UA is as viable as any other FE theory.  Besides, why don't you give the noobs the chance to "destroy" the UA for themselves?  You shouldn't hog all the fun for yourself.

how exactly does gravity bend time space, and what "space" is it expanding into??

gravity is hard to understand for a Zetetic. The UA makes more sense.

If I didn't keep pointing out the variances in g disproving UA, nobody else would, and new debaters would be left with weaker counterarguments as that is the strongest counter to UA there is and the one thing that destroys the Equivalence Principle in this argument. Since the "jump off a chair" Equivalence Principle is the only defence there is for UA, it's fairly fundamental to the RE position to be able to trash it effectively.

1. I didn't derail the thread as I was discussing something pertinent to the topic, i.e. Newton's laws, gravity, etc. But since you autohit reply to post a criticism when you see my post, without reading said post, I wouldn't expect you to have noticed.
2. The post count comment was an ironic dig at Hoppy for complaining that I post too much. If you can't understand that then perhaps you should return to the lower forums.
3. There are many people supporting the RE side here who have been here longer than I have, yet do not use the most effective arguments against FET. I haven't seen any threads proving the ISS is a satellite, crushing UA using "inexplicable" variances in g or disproving Tom's constant babble that high altitude curvature is caused by lens distortion before I came along. Why not?

This.

furthermore, before einstein the theory had already been falsified because of the deviation of mercury from a derivation of its orbit frrom newton's theory. but there was not a better model until einstein came along and unified some disparate gropings at an explanation.

I think what raymen intends to say, is that we still use newton's theory for everyday earth sciences 1)because it is accurate enough for human scales 2) it is a million times easier to use.
