Evidentally you (David) have taken some time to
analyse my pysche, indeed an entire essay devoted
to my improvement, well heck that's cool.

IMO, you live in an out-house and know the graffitti
on the walls as good as anyone, but have never opened
the door to see the stars, or the sunrise.

Bull, wait for GP-b and LIGO results.

Let the experiments speak!

I did but Mcanally does understand GR either.

Read and snipped, NOPE...not even close.
McAnally, you don't understand QM, you
just blindly copy stuff out of books.

McAnally, you already told us your IQ, and
it's way below what's needed, deal with it.
You being Australian, I recommend you become
a sheppard. Hell, you get to stand in a field
all day in your panties holding a cane,
smoking funny tobaccy, porking horny sheep,
OOPS, maybe that's my fantasy, guys disregard
that last paragraph.
