MMMM, make sure that the format for quotes is as follows:

Code: [Select]
[quote="Name Here"]text here[/quote]

Anyway.. Point and Set, again.

How do you do multiple quotes?
And while I'm at it, how do you attach a picture to a post?

You've got to be sure that BBCode is turned on; while typing up a post, it's near the bottom lefthand corner, under "Options".

As for multiple quotes, you have to "nest" them inside one another:
Code: [Select]
[quote="Somebody"][quote="Anybody"]Somebody better get in here and fix this.[/quote]

Are you mocking me?  :P[/quote]


Also, you could always click on the "quote" button.  It looks like this:


As for images in text:
Code: [Select]

Quote from: "Tom Bishop"


"Both moon and sun are turned into spotlights by gravitational lensing."

"Why should gravitational lensing only occur with stars in other parts of the galaxy?

What is the difference between our sun and other stars?

Why shouldn't it occur with our sun as well? Light is light, mass is mass, after all.

Applying the MOND gravitational lensing equation locally, the spotlight effect is accurately described."

The sun is not a physical spotlight with shutters and all. No where in FE literature does it say that. The "spotlight" is just an allegory due to the sun's effects on the earth.

"Gravitational lensing describes these effects accurately, if applied locally."

"I've stated many times in this thread, gravity and acceleration are indistinguishable both physically and mathematically. The Sun and Moon are accelerating with the Earth."

" Well the topic of this thread was about the moon. So I decided to focus on light's effect on the moon.

In the case of the sun, light would originate within the Sun's core and have to travel through it's own hydrogen chromosphere and photosphere. After this the light must travel towards the earth.

Since, in the place of gravity we have acceleration, the parabolic mirror effect could be analogous to trailing your finger through calm water. Your finger would be the sun, and the water's wake would be the shape of light distortion. Whatever is following behind your finger, in this case the earth, would see the area near the finger in a convexed shape.

Simply extrapolate this effect to a three dimensional environment, perhaps imagining a ball traveling through water, and you have a convincing argument for the spotlight effect."



You have such a logical argument process Tom.

As is proven with the above, you really have no idea & you are just making it up as you go!
As for this hour's theory,(ie "imagining a ball traveling through water, and you have a convincing argument for the spotlight effect.") you're now saying that we are all travelling faster than the speed of light? This is the only way that this could be!




Come on Tom, don't throw in the towel!

Anyone else care to back Tom up on this?

Don't leave him to struggle by himself!

What am I backing up into Tom?

I don't know what I need to argue against.
