The 5D spacetimes Wesson uses for his models are Ricci-flat, not of "infinite curvature". That's like, his main point. Is this going to be like the LIGO mirror discussion again, where you insist that facts are opposite from reality because you say so?

In what place the Wesson says, what his 5-th dimension is compact (ie. the cyclic)?

Why are you asking *me* that? You raised it, remember?

Have a heart. This idiot has enough trouble with Lego, never mind LIGO.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

For my taste, to be called "idiot" from a lady is not such bad thing. Do you agree?

Any Schwarzschild Black Hole is "Ricci-flat". Do you agree?

Was calling Stimbo a lady supposed to be a witty insult from 1854?

Being called an idiot, is not such a bad thing, when you're an idiot. So, yeah - in your case it's a compliment, really...

I stopped trying to make any sense of what the borg meant by anything a while ago.
