Einstein's writings indicate that the gravitational field in essence
is
non-different from the effect of swinging a box around in a circle
on
the
end of a rope. There is of course a hypothetical scientist standing
on
the
floor of the box in circular motion.

Any opinions?
Sure.
You are referring to what is known as the "Principle of Equivalence",
Einstein went in for grand sounding names.
Actually there is no equivalence, the Earth is swinging on a long
elastic rope around the sun except the elastic does not obey Hooke's
law, force proportional to stretch, a law we use for spring balances.
The further we are from the sun the weaker the force, hence it cannot
be
equivalent.

For all the chips in Las Vegas I'd bet the ~spring~ is trying
to minimize energy exchange between the bodies. So it
isn't a spring at all... it is a string whose length does not
change with its ends fixed to foci:

snip! >:-)

Except for one tiny omission you are right.
Did you ever read Jonathan Swift?

http://www.affine.org/endian.html

Putting a M68k and an i386 on the same pwb is a much faster
way to self mutilate and draw blood.

You saw the green light and missed the pedestrian crossing.
Fortunately the pedestrian saw you. This is not about computers,
it is about Endians.



"How Swift's Gulliver's Travels fits into this has to do with a war that
took place between the peoples of two cities that Gulliver encountered.
One
group cracked their eggs open on the big end and the other cracked their
eggs open on the little end. Hence of course, war. "

"Star Encounters & Plaque: Several years from now the RTG power will
degrade
to a level that the signals to Earth will cease, and Pioneers 10 and 11
will
coast silently through interstellar space forever. "

Gulliver ( = Pioneer 10) isn't coming back to be a Little Endian ever
again.
The spring continues to stretch but grows ever weaker, there is no second
focus
to attach it to.
Can I have all the chips in Las Vegas now please?

You can after you eat all the chips in London....

That was not a requirement of the bet that you offered, I accepted and
you lost.
I no longer wish to let you off lightly with a bottle of Glenlivet.
Can I have all the chips in Las Vegas now please?
That includes road chips, potato chips, Doritos and casino chips.
ALL the chips, please. You may as well hand over Las Vegas,
it will be easier than shipping all the chips.
If you do not own all the chips in Las Vegas as I suspect, sell your
house, car and all property, buy as many as you can and ship those.
Otherwise I shall be compelled to sue Sue and bring criminal
charges of fraud, gambling with other people's chips.
I'm still prepared to let you off lightly, you see, but not as lightly
as before.



On second thoughts one bottle of Glenlivet will do, I'm not that greedy.
Vinegar will cover up the taste of all the news print.

I'm a Big Endian, btw.

I'm also curious... why do you imagine there to be a second sun at the
other
focus
That is where the system thinks the center of the universe is.


So you ARE totally crazy, as I suspected.
I'm not interested in what you think the system thinks.
The system is built on law.
Gambling law, criminal law and Kepler's law.
Can I have all the chips in Las Vegas now please?

...but when the bodies move, the systems notion of the center
of the universe moves.
I should add a pitchur o' that here:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/clocksnrods/message/78

of the ellipse? Surely we'd have seen it?

Are you a relativist or just incredibly stupid? Oops.. that's a
tautology.

Oh well, even tautologies exist.
Taunting will get you nowhere. Try flattery. :

You should have thought of that before taunting me with a bet.
Try paying up, I've shown you mercy twice now.
I see nothing worth flattery, I want the chips that I have fairly won.
Can I have all the chips in Las Vegas now PLEASE?
(See how polite I am?)

Sue...
