Harv,

Believe it or not, the theory of ether is still alive and well. They just changed the name of the "stuff" to "space". If you study the current theories of the "structure" of "space" you will see that the central necessity which drove the concept of "ether" is exactly what currently drives those theories.

Of course, this is no more than an opinion! And as Alex has pointed out, I do make errors.

Have fun -- Dick
