"there is no such "fabric" of a stretching and ever-accelerating spacetime. this implies "spacetime" is "something," a material substance or structure. and it is not."<br />~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<br /><br />how do you know 'it is not "something"'?<br /><br />BTW Einstein wasn't 'hot' as far as 'something' being there (and he certainly didn't invent it, if anything it was pushed on him by the scientific community) but when the ankle nipping dogs of science demanded from him clear answer and expected him to deny that anything is out there as per their cherished believes, he disapointed them, he said that while his theories didn't need something being there, they didn't rule out there actually being something, ie spacetime being real, just that one shouldn't attribute motion or rest to it<br /><br />vanDivX <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>
