Did I write invent?

If you revisit what I wrote, you'll find that I agree with you.

There was vigorous debate about a wrong and an unknown thing (both was basically wrong) and it took Einstein's intuition and the new GR math to turn it into science.

I was drawing a parallel between this and the current MOND, string theory, dark matter debate. More specifically, I'd even say dark anything is our generations aether!
