Hilmar, I figure you're already aware, but just for the heck of it, google "Bell's Theorem". Einsteinian locality has been shown to be 'questionable' in repeatable experiments.

>>Hi Hilmar,
>> Due to some of the latest research being done large cracks are starting to appear in the currently held beliefs, i.e. Gravity's effect travells at greater than the speed of light, possibly by a factor of 20 fold. Check this link out ftp://rock.helsinki.fi/pub/misc/matpitka/padtgd/Zanom.pdf

>Please note that apparent movement (in waves) faster than the speed of light have indeed been observed. Physicists usually point out (for example, do a search in www.physicsweb.org), that: (a) In a wave, you have to distinguish the group velocity from the phase velocity. I keep forgetting which is which. b) The faster-than-light movement (that is, faster than the speed of light in a vacuum) is of the type that can't be used to transport energy or information. In other words, consider it an apparent movement.
