   Apologies for rash editing causing the sentence above to be bungled...   
      
   Here's a question for all people who "think" they understand something,   
   where let's be clear, Apple preys on people who can't think like adults.   
      
   Do you know that spacetime is four dimensional and that mass:energy   
   (which are equivalent) warps spacetime such that gravity isn't a force?   
      
   I'm not expecting anyone on this newsgroup to comprehend the significance   
   of that sentence, just as I wouldn't expect them to comprehend that Apple   
   constantly removes functionality solely so that you have to buy it back.   
      
   But I am expecting you to come to the realization that if you can't   
   understand what that sentence says, then you have no basis for repeatedly   
   claiming that Minkowski spacetime is "the most abused non-thing ever".   
      
   Nor do you have any basis for saying "You are a charlatan" simply because I   
   happen to understand where the metric tensor & Christoffel symbols fit in.

   All iKooks suffer from their existence being left of the 1st D-K quartile.
