I disagree entirely. *Spacetime* describe almost perfectly the phenomenon and the mechanics of gravitation, by removing many unnecessary and wrong things introduced by other theories. However, the *spacetime* may not be the whole story, since it does not explain its "plasticity", or what exactly attributed property enable spacetime to accomplish all that.

Coincidently, if such a property IS associated with spacetime, then an anti-gravity device, shielding and gravity generators MUST be possible to develop.
