Yes, I know :)
But if you let a moment of doubt into it you will see that I write "And that is what gravity does to you too as I read it"
What I do there is to connect it to the idea of Higgs particles. I've had, and still have, a lot of doubt in the view that 'gravity' is a result of a 'Higgs field'. Somewhere I read a rather good explanation to why it, to some, can be seen as equivalent though. I should probably have been clearer on that subject. Never the less, if we ignore a Higgs field, the equivalence principle presume that this 'spaceship' and 'Earth' both are equivalent as I understands it.

And, just to not clutter this thread.. Wes, what you write about 'global' relative 'local' interpretations is one of my big dilemmas for the moment. I like the local interpretation myself, and are not sure what a global should be. Although Einstein defined one. Where I differ is in what makes a universe. I presume it to need a logic, to become 'whole', that meaning explainable without needing to refer to magic. But, logic is a mindset.
