How do you measure the speed of light and how do you determine it is different from 'c'? Are you using a mirror or synchronized clocks? What you are incapable of understanding is everything is under the effects of the aether. As I said in one of my original posts which it would help you understand the point I am making. The atomic clocks the Observers on the train are using are offset because of their state with respect to the aether. So, I will ask you again. How is the light to be measured?

The aether which is the reason for the observed behaviors in every double slit experiment ever performed. A C-60 molecule is in the slit(s). Detectors are placed at the exits to the slits while the C-60 molecule is in the slit(s). Every time the C-60 molecule exits the slit(s) it is detected exiting a single slit. When the detectors are placed and removed from the exits to the slits the C-60 molecule is able to create an interference pattern. How is this possible without the C-60 molecule having an associated aether displacement wave?

How do you measure your speed relative to the ether? As I have said at least four times now, you can't measure the speed of the aether. If you can't measure the speed of the aether you can't measure your speed relative to the aether. Do you want to ask this same question again so I can answer it for a fifth time? ______________________________________ I just described how you *can* measure your speed relative to the ether. You measure the speed of light, see how much it differs from c, and the difference is your speed relative to the ether. That is because according to you, light moves at a constant speed relative to the ether. So if you measure the speed of light, and subtract if from c, that must give you your speed relative to the ether. So say you measure that light is moving at 2 x 10^8 m/s relative to you. We know it is moving at 3 x 10^8 m/s relative to the ether, therefore you are moving at 3 x 10^8 m/s - 2 x 10^8 m/s = 1 x 10^8 m/s relative to the ether. Why doesn't that procedure determine your speed relative to the ether?

Go back to one of my original posts on this thread and re-read what I discussed about the atomic clocks on the train where the train is moving through the aether at rest with respect to the embankment and the time on the clocks and what the Observers conclude about the simultaneity of the lightning strikes. Since everything is relative to the aether the Observers on the train, even thought they are moving relative to the aether, are not going to be able to detect the aether and they are going to conclude light travels at 'c' because their clocks are already offset by the aether pressure they exist in. > So say you measure that light is moving at 2 x 10^8 m/s relative to you. And what I am telling you is since everything is relative to the aether you are not going to find that measurement. Again, I spent a good deal of time on my first couple of posts having to do with synchronized clocks on the train. Go back an re-read that post and, I doubt it, but you may realize why your assumption that the Observers on the train are going to be able to detect the light at other that 'c' is incorrect. > We > know it is moving at 3 x 10^8 m/s relative to the ether, therefore you are > moving at 3 x 10^8 m/s - 2 x 10^8 m/s = 1 x 10^8 m/s relative to the ether. > > Why doesn't that procedure determine your speed relative to the ether?
