Dennis:
You've got my appreciation and your money back! I've put in most of the
changes to fix the error you found, and I've been having a ball seeing the
effects produced by the "correct" gravity. Neat stuff! I'll be making a few
enhancements/fixes and E-mailing the new code. I'll probably leave the old
equation as an option, until I find out if 1GA29 (and others) can be done
with the real laws of nature. It's hard to believe that something that
realistic could result from wrong equations!
Many results, surprisingly, are similar to the ones resulting from the
wrong equation. I haven't had time to redo the spiral galaxy yet, but that
will apparently work using either equation. I've looked at the galaxy
article again; the authors of the article were careful enough not to claim
they had proven that gravity did it. Now you've helped find an alternate
possible explanation for spiral galaxies <g>.
I am still not an expert in Physics, but I feel a little bit closer.
Thanks again!
