Damn, i never thought about gravity lensing, thats so much better than solar reflectors (that would be shredded by the first meteor shower).
Nice one!

Rocketjock, U will be known from here-forward as RocketjockStrap unless you do the following...
STUDY ye olde FOLLOWING Texts...
(1) anything giving you a basic concept of the life of Ramanujan (could even be an Encylopedia Galactica entry ~ don't forget to bring a towel ~, just learn who he was cuz all the rest of us wanna figure out what the hell he was talking about)
(1.3 part A) "The Life and not-quite-dead Death of the nearly-dead guy writing this book"
---{author} whatshisname
(2) the penultimate series of math books, MATHTYPE for the Common Man (written by whatsHisName) , study them, know them forwards and backwards --- algebra, geom and trigon ---ometry, and calculus), then learn to do them mentally. Rest of us will build temples worshipping you if you do. We'll fight wars over who could best interpret how or why you did what you did in later generations, but that's beside the point. Learn to do yer math-o-matics in base 2 (binary), base 3, base 8, etc. and every other base (only mentally).
(3) then study any basic high school chemistry book. there will be a pop quiz. What is a an electroid, and what role does it play in the life of an adam's nucleitis? Furthermore, how does the protozoin and neutromonius give the whole adam it's basic gastronomic weight? you will be tested on these issues. of that there can be no doubt.
Then we'll move on to your ABCs of physics and astronomy. If you dare utter the following words... "Einstein", "special", "general", "cheetohs", "Feynman", or "quantum" without having read "Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy" (you're new bible of weirdness), you will be immediately outcast from the physical universe of all intelligent lifeforms and made to live on a mostly drab-colored uninhabited planet where your only companion for the rest of eternity (and yes, suicide is not an option) will be a very boring yet-super-intelligent shade of the color blue.
And believe-you-me mister. That particular shade of the color spectrum is an especially boring chatting companion. If you only knew.
await further instructions.

No such thing as gravity. The "Earth-that-was" just sucks.

Ah, XeroGravity, you are stoned, right?

Stoned? Nah, maybe I sniffed a little too much model glue back in the days (ya I used to make airplane and rockets and hang them from my ceiling with string). I do drink like a fish, if in fact fish actually do drink.
Go read HHGTG.
