Liz - I've got to admit I've only just now seen your point in terms of your actual line of inference. You are absolutely right of course. How can a piece of data involve a dark energy / dark matter interplay, with a calculated implication for the expansion of the universe, if the same data cannot at least say something about smaller scales. You are 100% in the logic IMHO. I'm sorry I didn't see it because I was thinking from a different angle. That being a person piece of effort (unpublished) that expects the result. Because of that I was trying to read you through the prism of my own inner madness. But you're right. It isn't clear that Bruno or Bruce or anyone else provide a response from the context you set up, which looks correct to me. If you are interested, Lubos Motl does a piece on this. I just looked on his site but can't see it. But I definitely saw it there. Motl isn't to everyone's taste...not even mine...I wouldn't be able to tolerate his views about climate science I shouldn't think. But he's a brilliant guy all the same and no one disputes that much is true. He's also an independent voice in terms of science. He's obviously not independent of his own personality or personal biases. his view was fairly sceptical. Not the original science, but the media distortion as he saw it. It's worth reading. Don't worry if you can't follow everything, hardly anyone can. I don't have Motl's skills and training or intellect, and rarely understand his whole point. Still find it worthwhile. look for it here if you are keen http://motls.blogspot.co.uk/ In terms of my bit on the side work....for me it's very much linked to a lot of other findings that are now beginning to show up everywhere at the frontiers of cosmology. A few of them also treated by Motl (he doesn't shy away even when he obviously doesn't have a strong answer). GRB's destroying 90's of life. Blackhole's with 'wormholes' between them. Blackhole's with 'spooky' alignments despite being at opposite ends of the universe. Those are all part of the same thing as the topic here, for me. Those three I mention because they are all blogs he's done, which you might look at even if you can't find the one in question re here.
