Furthermore, in an external particle based model for gravity, there is no need to invoke a purely mathematical "fabric" to space-time curvilinearity according to geodesics or warping, nor is it necessary to invoke Riemanian space, nor Minkowski space, but instead space-time is considered to be of a fractal geometry, and the trajectory of mass particles and photons through space is curved because of collisions with neutrinos (WIMPS).
