Hello
Since my early studies I realized that the Newton gravitation force law was completely wrong in small distances. I have been fired from the class because my physics teacher was very angry about my claims: How could scientific community accept to use a non accurate law without trying to correct it!!?
I think that mass explanation is something simple and reachable. I’m working on a gravity model and I’m facing the same problem again! The Newton force law is wrong with small distances and high masses. And there is no other referential!
I can not build a model based on wrong gravity approximation
In my new web site I propose a new gravitational approximation and I would like to have your opinion on it.
Thank you
Saad

you are right! the law was settled for spheres interaction and I made wrong calculations. Thank you for opening my eyes on that point. I was first very disappointed about my approximation, but actually it makes my unification project less difficult to achieve.
I’m working on an eather model (not a law) that explains gravity, space-time wrapping, black hole, wave forms using string methodology (not theory) and I would like to send you a copy to get your opinion. I will certainly need 3 or 4 weeks modeling for a first understandable shot.
Thank you for your help.

Hi Carl:
I was just about to look up your blog, when lo and behold, a message came into my blog from you.
Anyway, thanks for the tip to use worldpress, I think this blogging business is going to be a lot of fun.
But this latex stuff, yuk! Any easy way to convert microsoft word equations into latex?
Jay.

Hello Carl,
I’ve been meaning to forward this site address to you. http://plus.maths.org/competition/
It’s a link to Plus Magazine which is holding a math essay competition in several categories. One of the categories is for ‘university student and general public entrants.’ http://plus.maths.org/competition/guidelines_general.html
I thought of you when I first read about it due to your obvious interest and written thoughts concerning math and science. The closing date for entering is March 31, 2008. I hope you’ll consider submitting a story as it would be quite interesting to read your entry. I, myself, am contemplating a very short fictional piece to forward.
Best wishes, Fred
