This would take a lot more time than I have available right now.  The  
same goes for the Pioneer anomaly, as well as the radiation energy  
from colliding black holes etc., all of which I hope to investigate  
when not busy looking for things having a more immediate and  
practical application.  I've put all that on the back burner.  It  
sure would like to be able to afford my research - an affliction with  
which you might identify.

Yes.
