Nereid,

In posting # 86 The question was asked by Starfury -- how do you explain the microwave background? I interpreted his question to mean how does steady state theory explain the microwave background radiation. The OP stated only two ways that his model was different from the classic model and the CMBR was not one of them. Obviously the answer to this question is totally relevant to any steady state proposal. My statement was/ is the classic steady state explanation for the CMWB and was based on the link provided -- not a personal theory.

Van Rijn,

I agree that there was a lot of unnecessary banter in that room but I did not participate in it.

01101001,

I may not have been helping or hurting the OP's position since I made two postings in favor of what he said and two postings contrary -- discussing both the pros and cons of what the Op said. But I think you are incorrect in your statement that I was not helping the topic. I provided lots of edification and relevant links for the readers which I believe made that thread a lot more interesting so far. Usually such postings are usually a pounding of the OP which practically nobody learns from.

If you look at my other postings on other threads you will see that they all involve education and some of my comments in favor of the OP are contrary to my personal theories but instead are based solely on observation and logic. Many of my generic explanations involve the standard cosmological model and other standard models that I disagree with.
