Actually, I did not *translate* 'tadaaniim' (then) as 'before', just thought perhaps 'then' was "before" the BB. Although I'm a math idiot, I've been interested in atoms, and later, nuclear physics, since I was a kid. It's my "conviction" that some Vedic RSi_s - probably purely intuitively - knew stuff that's been revealed by the materialistic Western science only recently. OTOH, as the physicist(?) Delia sometimes remarked in alt.meditation.transcendental, I'm quite mischievous, so you shouldn't take everything I write all too seriously. Last but not least, I think I'm in a fairly good company, so to speak: http://www.photonics.cusat.edu/article2.html
