What's really cool to me about this is two people who are good friends can debate about the truth, disagree, knowing that one or both of them must be wrong, but still be friends. They must not be democRATs (or at least not deeply involved with the party).

This is an interesting question - because it is not exactly clear theoretically (at least per my understanding) that gravity waves must travel at the speed of light.

Professional jealousy, nothing more. The careers of a lot of these scientists are completely wrapped up in one scientific dogma or another, and any discovery that challenges their specific one is understandably met with jealously, rage, etc. The "gravity is instantaneous" crowd is the suffering party in this instance. Forgive me if I shed no tears for them.

It would be nice if they addressed the phoney science advanced by the global warming Watermelon Jihadists.

Kopeikin said he has found a mistake hidden deep in Will's calculations, and that other mathematicians concur. "He does not agree," Kopeikin said of Will today. "But mathematics is against him."
Be on the lookout for the specific math that is in question.

"Thursday on a report from last week that claimed the speed of gravity had been determined by observation and was equal to the speed of light.

OK, so if the speed of gravity equals the speed of light and according to Albert E. to attain the speed of light you would go back in time. Then when I fall down I should get younger ...

Correct?

Peter van Nieuwenhuizen, a physicist at Stony Brook University in New York, called the interpretation of the results by Fomalont and Kopeikin "compete nonsense,"

Ouch. Bump.
