Hi Creeky Belly,
| Quote | | This is a perfect example of speaking as an authority and then completely undermining your argument. The Fourier transform of a delta-function (spike) is not a sine wave, it's a constant. |
This is an interesting development.
You see, to this glorified grease monkey a single line (spike) in the frequency domain means a pure sine wave at the given frequency in the time domain. And a constant in the frequency domain means all frequencies are present in the time domain. We would call that "white noise".
Now I wonder what a pure sine wave in the frequency domain produces in the time domain. (start the Jeopardy theme song).
I take it you don't have Penrose's The Road to Reality. Obviously Keiths does but I doubt he would be interested in confirming the contents of page 523 for me.
And as much as you would like to ignore it, Penrose has done a great deal of investigation into gravitational effects and quantum gravity. Remember, this is the guy who modelled Black Holes for a living.
EDITED: I see you retracted your point. Thank you.
