My God. Science is about at year 400 really. Looking at Galileo and
Einstein.

This idea that we are far ahead is rediculous. Give science a million
years and then ask if it is superior. Civilization is at 10 thousand.

How long have we been building the fossil record?
Not very long.

You've been so busy posting idiocies here you can't even see it,.

I like to think that he used the coil and magnet because he felt he
could not use his real inspirations like the fact it was absurd to
think about what you would see if you looked into a mirror while
you and the mirror were traveling at the speed of light. His thought
experiments always seemed to have priority. And with general
relativity it was perhaps all thought experiment perhaps.

No formal references, but at least one informal reference:

', together with the unsuccessful attempts to discover any motion of
the earth relatively to the ``light medium,"'

I like to think that he used the coil and magnet because he felt he
could not use his real inspirations like the fact it was absurd to
think about what you would see if you looked into a mirror while
you and the mirror were traveling at the speed of light. His thought
experiments always seemed to have priority. And with general
relativity it was perhaps all thought experiment perhaps.

===============================================
Travelling at the speed of light relative to what, Tom?
I've travelled at 2/3 the speed of sound and noticed
nothing strange in the flight attendant's voice, why
should I notice anything strange if I travelled at 2/3
the speed of light? What would be absurd about it?
===============================================

No formal references, but at least one informal reference:

', together with the unsuccessful attempts to discover any motion of
the earth relatively to the ``light medium,"'

============================================
Galileo overhauled our understanding of relative motion,
Einstein's comment "The observable phenomenon here depends
only on the ... ahem...'relative motion' (excuse my cough)
of the conductor and the magnet." really hasn't overhauled
anything. Einstein denied relative motion applied to light, yet
the unsuccessful attempts to discover any motion of the earth
relatively to the ``light medium," shows he understood
that the speed of light was relative to something.
His pathetically poor algebra would apply to sound (outside
the plane).

I like to think that Einstein was a dim bulb like Wormley rather
than a deliberate charlatan, but a preponderance of the evidence
points to him being guilty of fraud; what I (or you) like to think
isn't pertinent to the facts.
