I know but its nice to a have quote from Feynman agreeing with what you have been saying.

Your original criticism in this thread was "the bad bit is you claim that if you measure the gravitional force of the moon relative to the centre of the Earth and then define the centre of the Earth as having zero force then you get a negative force on the far side."
I don't think Feynman would agree with you there at all. Physicists often shift reference frames in doing calculations.
