He is being charitable, and you know it.

If you really cared about the material, there is nothing that is
stopping you from learning it.

You're right.

The only thing stopping me from reading those books is the pre-reqs.

Which I'm working on.

No money? Go to the library.

Can't get to the library? Use the resources on the internet. God knows
I can get most of my textbooks in ebook form - I just prefer paper.

Can't figure out torrents? Read the free resources on the internet.

Can't figure out anything even with the full might of Google, arXiv,
and USENET at your disposal?

Find a new hobby. I suggest gardening, riding a bike, or reading.

The full might of USENET? That's a good one.

I asked if someone could explain the Tolman surface brightness test.

Let's see its might in action.

If you can't understand the contents of the Wikipedia link, then your
basic knowledge of cosmology is so sparse that you have no reason to
be discussing the topic.


If I don't understand the wikipedia link, I have no reason asking for
someone to explain it.

More excuses to talk about me instead of physics.

I'm flattered, actually.
