Ok, excuse me then. It's hard to tell online, especially when you have such a density of sarcasm as on this forum (I would have it no other way)!
You asked me about new matter being created when the universe expands and when I explained that isn't what would happen (and that it is, in fact, impossible), your response was to ask what was in the new space and that you didn't like making matter without energy. . . which is what I had just said wouldn't happen. That's why I thought you were being facetious.
Expanding space-time increase mass in the same way bread rising increases the number of raisins in the dough. It doesn't.
