Thanks for the reply. That makes sense. I suppose it wouldn't be that different than throwing a speck of dust at high speed against a grain of sand on the beach and expecting to see disturbance. Even if you threw millions of grains over a large area, it would just push against the sand gently, rather than make it swirl and distort..... The heat from gravity's force makes a lot of sense. I definitely didn't think the sun was able to affect the planet enough.
On another note, could the heat levels of Jupiter be used in any way to help you check your theory on the gravity collapse model of why planets explode? Could you not check the mass of Jupiter, measure the heat from the sun, and the amount generated within the planet itself and make some conclusions about what a solid-body planet would need to self-destruct from the same forces?

While I won't pretend I 100% understand all of what's on that link, I think I get the idea fairly well. Was Jupiter's heat output factored in to your assessment of the LCM concept of energy build-up? Does the amount of excess heat that planet puts off coincide with what you would expect from gravity-induced heat? I mean, that heat does flow away sufficiently for the planet not to blow up, but wouldn't that be detectable as actual heat? Or do you think the idea that it's radiactive decay inside the planet is the most plausible? I guess I don't exactly understand where Meta Research Institute stands on Jupiter's excess heat's cause.....

I know I'm all over the place here, but I do appreciate the responses! I have one more quick question, though perhaps not the most simple one. Do you think it's possible that ALL radioactive decay is due to gravity? That is, a single atom reaches a density where it intercepts too many gravitons and thus destabilizes, throwing off sub-atomic particles until it reaches a balanced state again. It would seem to make sense then when one looks at critical mass, since the most interior of the mass's atoms would be the least able to expel their heat at a sufficient rate. I would make an analogy to a campfire, where you must have a certain amount of mass to get a reliable fire(depending somewhat upon the fuel used of course). A tiny fire won't stay lit very well, a big one rages intensely. The core of the fire needing the extents to keep it warm enough for a steady burn. I hope that made sense. I'm a little sleep-deprived right now haha
I've had a theory for a long time that at some point there must be some sort of "super critical mass", but yet I have never actually been able to associate any real mechanism to it. I think gravity-induced heat may be just that mechanism. If I understand a lot of the basic concepts of meta model, the scale dimension would almost certainly demand that if there is critical mass at a small scale, there must be a much larger version of it, and beyond that a larger version still. Am I wrong in this?
