No - as you would have known if you were less impulsive! :-))

No force either, if you mean external force.

That's better! It does not mean compression of the earth "out of shape by
aether pressure" so that it "it should bounce back like a ball" - there is a
subtle difference about how the forces act. You presumptuously mistaken that
Lorentz didn't know the laws of Newton...

No you did - but it won't save your theory, it's worth a new thread!
