I really never really understood the physics of light and color until I learned about the red-shift (doppler) and the blue-shift... Then it all seemed to make perfect sense.. Of course, then EINSTEIN has to throw a monkey's wrench into the whole thing with his silly "if a person moving at or near the speed of light (vector X) approaches a person also proceeding at or near the speed of light in the opposite direction (vector -X) there is no appreciable additional doppler shift..." AGGGHH! What Feynman said about Quantum Physics "Nobody UNDERSTANDS quantum physics" is nearly as true if you plug in "Einsteinian Relativity" for "Quantum Physics" OFF TOPIC -- You see the new computer models of dark matter (Einstein hated it) in the early universe? They start with an evenly distributed matrix of gases and the dark matter pulls the normal matter into strings, stars, and eventually galaxies.. Awesome stuff... Looks like that universal constant was the reflection of a real physical fact after all.. Given how Einstein hated that constant, but also created it, I'm not sure if he would be pleased or displeased with current modeling.. Keith [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
