OK, thanks. I know that.

This is a rhetorical question. Just how would you go about getting people to participate with you about your pet theory? Say you wanted help from a bottom up perspective meaning that even simple “known facts” must be confirmed as logical or reinvented with responsible speculation because the fundamental particle is the starting point not the goal?

Maybe start some threads with some ideas, listen to everyone who posts their comments, study up on the comments and incorporate them into you idea, post your new idea with improvements from the community, ask for input, listen to the input, fix the ideas based on the input, post the update, ask for input. Pretty soon, as you begin to think your idea is getting better, people get tired of playing with you.

Maybe you end up with something that makes sense or you don't; maybe you like it but it is not even wrong. Maybe you can't go further whether right or wrong because the physics compounds itself exponentially from a couple of simple thoughts and pictures into innumerable simultaneous equations, each with its own full length video. Not a one man job. And not a project for a public forum where there is little patience with speculation, even responsible speculation like mine . I just like doing it and I think it is important.

Why important?

It is about trying to understand what caused the initial expansion of our universe. Deciding there was some missing physics; considering it responsible speculation that the missing physics would be built around a unifying particle.

Like having the insight to consider a greater universe exists and that our observable universe is expanding within that greater universe. Like thinking that there must have been preconditions stemming from that greater universe to cause the big bang and to cause the expansion to begin; considering a pre-existing big crunch might have started our arena into the expansion mode.

Maybe the place to start would be to examine what a unifying particle would have to be like to cause a crunch to burst, to exist as energy density of space, to form matter, to cause gravity and to cause matter to be separating, to cause accelerating expansion, to generate the CMBR, to shape galactic structure and large scale structure, and to the equalize the density of expansion and start the process over again from an infinite greater universe where there is a balance between matter and energy and ... on and on.

I find this endeavor interesting and stimulating. If you don’t, don’t act like you have thought this all through and can say for sure that I am wasting my time. Everything changes if there is a unifying particle that has always existed.
