Your name...
[edit]Is the name "Lintott" taken? In Sweden "lintott" is something you call children with blonde hair. It comes from "lin" (flax) and "tott" (not sure, but I think it's something like "tuft" as in "a bunch of"). // Liftarn
The existence of black holes
[edit]My edits are to ensure that a layman reading the article will not jump to conclusions about black holes. They are regarded as theory, and their existence has yet to be proven. The unproven mathematics are another large part of why their existence hasn't been verified yet. Hawking himself declared that some of his ideas about the theory to be wrong.
Black holes continue to be the popularly "accepted" explanation, but their existence is far from proven. The theory can be tweaked to match observational data, which in result may "indicate" that the theory is true, even if it is no closer to being proven than before. My intent is simply to encourage critical thinking, and not to not allow people to jump to conclusions without knowing all the facts.
Thanks for the link. I will have to read through and see what I can make of it. I am not a professional scientist of any sort, all I have is my mind and an interest in the field.
Thanks also for not reverting my edits. I am, as much as possible, trying to maintain a NPOV. ~ste
