On the contrary. I adduced the same theory (relativistic view of
gravity) used to think up "black holes" in the first place. My
posting may be wrong, or "speculative" (what an offense!) or a
put-on, but handwaving it's not.

Astronomers "identified" canals on Mars for many, many years, and even
drew pictures of them.
