Dumb or not, the concept is supported by observation.

Such species do not do well in changing environments.
You might want to read up on how species evolve to
adapt to changing environments.

So let's see, John, if you explained this properly.

Suppose I'm hanging from the wing of an airplane at 10,000 ft above
the ground. Both the plane and the earth are pulling me
gravitationally. The Earth is pulling me down and the plane is pulling
me up. But the plane is closer to me. So if I let go, the pull of the
plane will be greater and keep me from falling....

There's the small business that the Sun is a third of a million times
more massive than the Earth. So explain again to me why we aren't
sucked up toward the Sun?

Armistead has refuted Galilean relativity; well, if
he can sell that, he should get a "Nobel in economics!"

it's easy to show redshifting of waves, propogated in the lab,
via the refractive index of some transparent material. so,
the burden of proof is upon those, who believe
in an absolute vacuum, through which "photons" must
be aimed at the rods & cones of one's retina.
