Reminds me of something I've been stewing on lately.. if mass distorts apacetime and light, and we are not Maxwell's demon knowing the position and status of every Mass out there, it makes me wonder how you get a accurate measurement on anything.. I could see things being many orders of magnitude wrong.. but then again I'm not that scientist :-)
