(1982). What does he claim? And if you wish to see the "canonical" viewpoint on G-waves and how to derive G-wave emission, check out Misner, Thorne, and Wheeler's _Gravitation_ or some other such GR textbook. To claim that "there is no decent derivation" would mean that MTW's derivation is somwhow flawed. Can you point out the error in it? -- /Loren Petrich, the Master Blaster /lip@s1.gov
