Bah. I'd like to see Einstein explain Gr to his grandmother.
This is excactly the point
Grandmother will not understand it.
You not too.
Nobody will.
A half wind is and will always be a half wind.
Swift on the right Brian, - swift on a coherence perspective, - it will make a difference for both you and your grandmother, and evrybody else. .
What I am saying….. imaging…. ( even it it may be hard for you) that several pieces of “something” this morning was landed outside your house, - you and grandmother would have no idea what “these” are, but it seems these must have fall from the sky.
I don’t know how your brain now would work now (but I fear the worse), - anyway at least a cow would try to put the pieces together and at least try to find some kind of possible pattern, to at least imaging what it could be.
But you know in orthodox physics “scientist” are not always allowed to think coherently, - simply because in physics even old holy expressions are “forbidden” to touch.
So the only problem Grandmother really have is that you properly not would allow here to use here right brain half, - right ?
I mean the holy scientific text book do not allow grandmother to even play with old orthodox expressions and hence also not to use her
own imagination right ?
Now go to your grandmother and tell her the truth,;
Space is a thin soup.
Everything is made of that thin soup.
I am sure grandmother would say; Ahhhh you mean a thin soup with balls. ?
Yess grandmother … the balls is also made of the soup you
should honestly explain here, - and therefore the soup density is thinner close to the balls..
Ahhhh grandmother would say, - so we can say the soup is deforming especially near the balls, - right?
Exactly grandmother, - we can say: the soup is deforming close to the balls, - but don’t be confused, it only means that the balls have absorbed soup-density, - especially near the balls.
Ahhh Grandmother would say now I understand GR.
Yes grandmother and you can also understand that the balls can convert back to where it original come from, - > into the same thin soap, - can’t’ you.?
Yes Grandmother would say, ...this is how to understand what a gravity wave (and so called dark energy) , - isn’t it?
So as you can see, - grandmother is not so stupid, - the problem is rather that you properly expect here to be so.
Muuhhh.
