Sorry guys, this is, as the article states, an anomaly. There are many others that do not behave this way....they behave as expected. This ONE, however, is different.

Paul Craig Robert's brain?

We all knew it had to be somewhere other than in his head.

The theory is that the start off real fast, as I am sure you understand, and then slow down.

The extension of that is that when young, they are fast, which we see is not true for all cases, all ages. Age is a guess only, as size.

They could start off slow, build up, then way later slow down.

And I read the next post and I'll go give him credit for the answer why.

Darn. Beat me to it. You may fool others but you don't fool me.

Very simple, well-known visual everyone gets.


The child is in it's pre-accretion stage. The force of it's darkness (Neutron Star) pulls in more and more matter from the circling debris field, and grows, and gets fuel from this growing matter which increases the energy, thus the speed.

Beyond a certain growth point, (size, energy, density) entropy takes back over.


...or what you said.

Just like Al Gore.
