I received many opinions about my theory. This is my general answer to all of you who accessed my website:

Dear Colleague,

           I do not present much of experimental evidence or mathematical arguments. I must admit that many assumptions on my part are of intuitive nature but they follow the inescapable rule "that is possible only if...". For example, conventional observations and calculations show that when a smaller mass enters (or orbits in) a gravitational force field of a larger mass, its interaction with the larger mass is instantaneous, which is impossible. But there it is -- there is no delay, no gravitational aberration. That can be possible only if the smaller mass is interacting with the gravitational force field of the larger mass, not with the larger mass itself. And gravitational conditions of the larger mass are already preset in its gravitational force field.

          There is a notable confirmation to my assumptions. Gravity probe B has failed and the project was cancelled by the NASA. Contrary to Einstein's predictions, neither gravitational geodetic effect nor frame dragging effect were detected. The failure makes a dent in Einstein's predictions, instead of the dent in spacetime.

          In 2018, the LISA space project will be launched to detect gravitational waves from distant binaries. When no gravitational waves materialize, that is going to be a death blow to general relativity.

          I understand why the science community, the NSF, and NASA go to such lengths (and expense) to launch space probes in order to prove that Einstein's predictions are correct. It is a dogmatic approach. We are stuck with Einstein. Everything in physics, astrophysics, and astronomy has been placed on the base of general relativity. If general relativity collapses, then ALL textbooks, ALL university curriculums will have to be rewritten, from scratch. Space sciences upside down! Not a very pretty picture, is it? Space probes and the LISA project are the last attempts to salvage general relativity. A drowning man grabs everything in sight to stay afloat.

          There is another smudge in the picture. Just like in politics and social relations. They tell you, "Try to pretend that you don't see what you see." The same in astronomy and astrophysics, "Try to pretend that you don't see what the absense of gravitational aberration means. Take it into account, but ignore what that means."

          Me? I'll continue promoting my theory. The science community? As they say, give them enough rope, and they will hang themselves. Just a figure of speach, of course. When the smoke clears, scientists like you will put pressure on the NASA and the NSF to point research in the right direction. That is how I see it. You? Think of your name being added to the short list of those who dethroned the false idol -- Einstein.

          A gentleman from the University of California has discovered my books on the Amazon.com. He calls my conduct controversial and "non-scientific", whatever that means. During the last week, I received more opinions not entirely about my theory of gravitation. Contracts?! Clint Eastwood's contracts for one million dollars do not exist. The twenty thousand dollars fee is the best you can get on the international mercenary market. A soldier of fortune's life is that cheap. But... my books have no connection to my theory or this project.

          My dear colleagues (those who are studying Einstein's gravitational waves and participating in the LIGO project), when you discover that your line of pursuing gravitational waves is the "bridge to nowhere", what's next? Promote your own ideas, I bet they are better than the ones you followed because you live in the modern world, not in the world of 1905. We advanced beyond the primitive concepts of 1905. We have tools the old scientists couldn't even dream of. We are modern scientists.

                                             Thank you.
