b)Correct, yet that CBR, in traveling to us across the universe is affected by the universe so evenly that our measurements of it never vary by more than one part in ten thousand. Thus some have assumed that the universe looks basically the same regardless of the direction or even the locality from which it is viewed. Please notice that I do not agree with this assumption.

You seem to be ingnoring the overall anisotropy of the CBR. Conklin in 1969 described the dipole variation in the CBR due to the proper motion of the solar system at a velocity of 370km/sec. http://www.astro.ucla.edu/~wright/cosmoall.htm#LSS

Bye bye geocentricity and even Heliocentricity/milkywaycentricity of the universe....

Feel free to show mathmaticaly how you feel nearly homogenous CBR suggests a spherical plane...

Smoots in 1977 presents a much better detection of the first order anisotropy. http://prola.aps.org/pdf/PRL/v39/i14/p898_1Sorry, just realized this link doesn't work outside the firewall. The reference is: {Smoots, et. al., 1977, Physical Review Letters, 39, 898}
