Pluto,
If you look at my model in "Bang/Crunch Revisited" you will see a model of galaxies all expanding away from each other (as we see), isotropic in all directions (as we see) and a metaphor of galaxies being molecules of rubber (and stars as atoms, I would add) within the rubber membrane of a mega-cosmos... which we can not see... as our cosmic event horizon is buried deep within the thickness of the expanding (and thinning) rubber.
The elasticity of the rubber balloon is analogous to the force of gravity, as all masses pull on all other masses eventually to overcome and reverse the outward force of the "bang"... whatever its dynamic and scale... Cyclical cosmi as micro-spheres within the macro-cosmic balloon rubber... to the whole balloon finally ceasing to expand and then 'deflating' back into a primordial mass of "Rubber" ... which then "goes bang" again.

This makes way more sense to me than the popular M-theory cosmology... which has, I think, much more imaginative fantasy in it than the above.

I'm glad you are here.
(Please send me a PM on how you got to be a "notorious" bad boy like me on this site... and who does the judgmental labels, if you know.)
