Here's #2. I'm still working on it. But here's what I have so far.

The earth is constantly in motion with regard to space-time. Therefore the earth's gravity well is also constantly moving through a new region of space-time. Looking at the gravity well upside-down, it almost resembles a wave travelling through the water. The water that makes up the specific wave does not travel along with the wave, the wave is continuously moving through new water molecules. That brings me to why an object would be attracted to the top of this wave.

A surfer riding on a water wave requires the wave to be in constant motion. Because the surfer is on the forward side of this wave, he/she will constantly encounter new resistance from new water underneath as the wave travels through the ocean. At the same time, gravity acts on this surfer, pulling him/her down to offset the upward push of the new water entering the wave. The velocity this surfer maintains relative to the earth indicates whether the surfer falls behind, lurches forward, or remains stable with respect to the wave. The amplitude of the wave and its velocity indicate what velocity is necessary by the surfer to "ride the wave", surge ahead, or fall behind. A slower surfer will be pushed toward the top of the wave (and then fall behind it, unless it “wipes out” as I’ll explain later), while a faster surfer can escape the wave and move freely in front of it, without getting pulled to the top (unless the wave catches up again of course).

In this upside-down example, the water is space-time, the wave is a gravity well in motion through space-time, the cause of the well is the Earth (which would exist at the zenith of the wave and is in constant linear motion, and if the surfer hits it, he'll be dragged along by it), and the surfer is you.

I'll get back to this on Monday. But you probably get the picture.
