   Really nice writeup. I wish I knew more on physics to comment on   
   what was written, but on the points mentioned I cannot.   
      
   I think my really big question is what happens to the people inside   
   a ship containing a warp drive? Would the gravity affect their   
   aging process? Presumably, the warp drive would be turned on and off   
   depending on the situation. If so, what would happen to the biology   
   of the crew? There would, I assume, be a dramatic gravitational   
   transition from the gravity inside the warp drive's field of   
   influence to the gravity of space, a planet, or what-have-you.
