The Speed of Gravity - Repeal of the Speed Limit
"the most common interpretation ... is that the speed of gravity is the speed of light. This interpretation is also based on a misunderstanding of the implications of aberration and confusion between the meanings of gravitational force variations and gravitational waves."

question has been pretty well hashed out in physics circles a long while
ago. Thank you Albert et al. Not to say views of the Uber smart don't
