Hi Zephir, welcome to the BAUT forum.

As others have noted, you've discussed this idea on other forums, and were eventually banned. I want you to know that you have no bad record here to overcome, but we will expect you to follow the rules here, and answer questions to the best of your ability. Ideally, if you don't know an answer you'll tell us, and if you can compute or resolve an answer, but it will take some time, you'll tell us so, and commit to a timeframe for giving the answer. I'd like to note that some of our rules are in place to weed out members who use circular or evasive rhetorical techniques to never 'lose' or be proven wrong.

Our goal here is to air out new ideas that are not mainstream, but might lead science in a new direction. The odds of any one such idea being a new direction are pretty low, so there's no shame in the idea being shown to have holes... and it may turn out that some of the criticisms here will give you some insights towards useful modifications of your ideas.

To that end, I have a few questions for you:

- By dense and massive, are you using an allegory, and you do not mean that the aether has inertia or gravitational potential by itself? If so, how complete and extensible is this allegory?

- Are you aware of any measurement possible, present or future, that could distinguish your AWT idea from the mainstream ideas it would replace?
