Good physics rambles never die
Ben and I duke it out in comments from the last post here. Perhaps some others who have been following along have something to add? (This may be getting a tad technical for non-physicists).

Darn, I have already used the slippery jello analogy for sewing silk. It would also be most apt for trying to picture in my head objects moving apart by the inflation of space itself between them, and what that means for light moving itself through that expanding space, stretching as it goes, and how that differs from light moving between two objects moving apart for other reasons.

Unrelated side note: When dancing naked in your hallway for extended periods of time, always remember to check that the front door is fully, fully closed.

Yet another reason for me to dance only in a onesie with feet.

Better yet, you should never dance at all.

or better yet,
webcam it, and make a website that charges an atrocious amount to watch you dance
and then if anyone walks past the open door and sees you,
Righteously demand that they pay you money!

Yeah, I'm afraid you guys lost me.

Someday I will have no roommates and will be able to dance naked around my apartment again.

I was actually making a rather interesting mistake, which I'm thinking of writing a little blurb on with pictures. I like drawing pictures.
