Sorry for this, but the last line is wrong. I was somewhat distracted
then. What I meant to write was that if a plane came at you at near
sonic speeds, you could hear it coming at you for only a short time,
but hear it depart from you for a much longer time. As I have written
below, if a plane is supersonic, you will hear it when it is coming at
you for a short time, and over you, but then you won't hear it at
all. I regret this mistake.

I'm sorry, Arindam, but you are under the mistaken impression that
just about any old experimental result can be re-analyzed to support
any theory you believe. In this way, experimental results could never
distinguish between theories, in your mind, because no experiment can
unambiguously rule out a theory. This is flat wrong.

The word research means search again. I was doing just that.
Research, to find out *new* things - that is the stuff of progress.
So I can jolly well re-analyse old experimental results, inconvenient
as they may be to the establishment.

I think that the flat-earth theory has been comprehensively ruled out
by the fact of satellites, etc. Similarly, SR has to be thrown out,
if we are to believe in deductive logic a la geometry and most maths.
Now, if we have no use for logic, facts, experiments; if we believe
someone's imagination and hand-waving and plain bullshit are what
really matter, in *science* as in business or government, for
perception is all that matters, reality be damned, then I have nothing
more to say to you guys. There can be no argument! I see myself as
an honest engineer, out to make an Internal Force Engine that will
break the speed of light barrier. The bullshit of SR gets in the way
of funding or appreciation, so such efforts as these, on my part.

Cheers,

Yeup

Nope .. because it has never been refuted. every experiment to test
it has given the results SR predicts

No .. SR is perfectly consistent mathematically (including
geometrically). It has a different geometry that is more consistent
with reality that non-relativistic theories.

WE can only dream. But I'm sure you will continue to post your
erroneous article

We don't. Because you are not honest enough, or intelligent enough to
see and admit to your mistakes

Good luck with that

What a shame when reality gets in the way of your fantasies.

Now .. are you going to deal with the reality of the errors in your
article?

You are certainly free to do that. Be sure not to re-analyze *single*
experiments, as relativity is supported by literally dozens of
completely different experiments testing different aspects of
relativity. A replacement model would have to explain that whole set
simultaneously.

No sir. Logic and math do not serve to chuck theories. Relativity is
completely internally consistent.
In such a situation, the ONLY rationale for chucking a theory is if it
makes a prediction that is completely inconsistent with experimental
data.
Do you have such data?

As you please.

Best way to do that is to build it, no?

I doubt it. Research into proving relativity is wrong is funded all
the time. I used to work with a guy that did that work for two
decades, all that funded. It may be that you have other problems with
your proposals, no?
