Newton's Principia covered what you are trying to do and much more. And unlike you, it was correct. And it was published in 1687. That was 318 years ago. > I'm running out of time and > energy now but have made substantial inroads which as time and energy > permit, I'll be continuing to persue. Pleas run out of time and energy as soon as possible. You have made no substantial inroads into anything. No inroads of any kind. You are a pathetic fool.

And here was I thinking it was negative-sum. That is more like it. A negative sum game. There are no winners. Kind of like abusing drugs......
