Re: [OM] Gravitationals waves--yes they do exist and so do Black holes

Wow. "witter on" - to chatter or babble pointlessly or at unnecessary 
length.
I couldn't even say that about most evangelicals or spiritual people 
I've met in my life that wore their religion on their sleeve because I 
believe they sincerely believed the stuff they preached.
"Mostly guesswork".  Hmmm.  I enjoy listening to the thoughts and 
theories of most physicists and astrophysicists. Some of the better ones 
possess a childlike wonder about the world and universe surrounding them 
and seem to be joyful about the miracle of it all. They enjoy trying to 
figure out how it all works. The late Richard Feynman and Carl Sagan 
come to mind.
