Please don't kill me here...I am really just a curious creature...QFT and GR are mutually incapabatable ergo they cannot both be correct...so best is that one is used for low energy large scale predictions (as per theory) and small scale high energies ( as part theory) ...(BTW I know what the term theory means I really am not a crack pot)...just wondering what in sight there is to any inificacation in black holes or m theory or what...really just curious...just not sure who to ask...like Socrates said I trust the experts (and I really do)...just wondering...experts could I talk to you...ask some questions

By the way @Megaton, people are more likely to read your posts if you punctuate them correctly. Begin each sentence with a capital letter, end with a single period (full stop), not three, and use commas mid-sentence (not three periods).

From our rules:

Language:
All posts must be in English. Posts in other languages will be deleted. Pay reasonable attention to written English communication standards. This includes the use of proper grammatical structure, punctuation, capitalization, spacing, and spelling. In particular, "I" is capitalized, there's a space after (but not before) a comma, a period, and other punctuation. Multiple exclamation marks are also discouraged. SMS messaging shorthand ("text-message-speak"), such as using "u" for "you", "please" for "please", or "wanna" for "want to" is not acceptable.​

Define "Incapabatable", "correct" and "inificacation".
 
I asked a question here, probably over 15 years ago on entanglement and I appreciated the thoughtful answers I received back then. The intervening years haven't made me any more knowledgeable in physics, so forgive my naïveté ! If a have a piece of paper in an area of high gravity, lets say near a black hole, and I draw a triangle on this paper and 'measure' the angles of the triangle, will they add to 180 degrees? How about if I'm looking at this paper outside of the (reasonable)...
Thread 'Relativity of simultaneity in actuality'
I’m attaching two figures from the book, Basic concepts in relativity and QT, by Resnick and Halliday. They are describing the relativity of simultaneity from a theoretical pov, which I understand. Basically, the lightning strikes at AA’ and BB’ can be deemed simultaneous either in frame S, in which case they will not be simultaneous in frame S’, and vice versa. Only in one of the frames are the two events simultaneous, but not in both, and this claim of simultaneity can be done by either of...
