Just trying to give you a bit of background. You
won't make so many mistakes if you learn a
little of the history.

The idea of light being a particle had been around for
centuries in philosophical terms but during the late
19th century, Maxwell's Equations treated it purely
as a wave phenomenon. Planck started the modern
particulate view in December 1914. Ritz's theory was
published in 1908 and was, like yours, wave based.
It was disproven by Sagnac in 1913 so there was no
overlap between Ritz and the particle based model.

It explains MMX, which is what prompted it, but
not Sagnac.

Yes, that's the same as Ritz, he simply said light
was emitted at c relative to the source.

Nor did Ritz.

Why don't you read mine? I am fairly sure I have told you
before that Ritz's theory was not particle based, and if you
had taken the hint that I was giving you a pointer to
information you would find useful, you could have looked
up Ritz's theory on the web and found out for yourself.

No, that's the black-body curve, the photoelectric effect
and many modern experiments where individual photons
are manipulated. All the evidence points that way, but
note that all particles have wave-like properties. Reality
is somewhere between the two that has no counterpart
in our macroscopic view of the world.

No, it applies to anything that has momentum which
includes light.

I never suggested you did.

No. We now know that light is particles but that's a separate
matter. To use you analogy, if a wave starts moving across
a deep and uniform ocean from west to east, then it will
continue moving in that direction until it reaches a shore.
What I (and Ritz) would say is that the wave continues its
progress in that manner even if it was a bow wave from a
ship and the ship chenged course after the wave had left
it.

It told us that the model of light as a wave in a medium whose
speed is determined by that medium (as for example the speed
of sound along a metal bar is determined by the natre of the
metal) together with Galilean Relativity does not work.

You don't seem to understand that what is called a "medium"
for propagation defines the speed.

The refractive index tells us that the speed is affected
by the presence of matter.

Light is bent round the Sun by gravity, Eddington's
measurement of that effect was the first clear test of
GR because the bending is double what Newtonian
theory predicts.

If the particles (or waves, it doesn't matter which) were
emitted at c relative to the source in the MMX then it
would give a null result. The rotation of the Earth
doesn't affect the fringes so the light can obey Newton's
Law after emission without any problem. That was Ritz's
model.

Sorry Sean, particles emitted at c relative to the source
work as well as waves for the MMX.

Because you have to abandon Newton's first law. I think
it is unreasonable to think that a wave moving due east
approaching Africa which started as the bow wave of ship
sailing north east near Florida will change direction if the
ship changes course a day after the wave was launched.
That is what you are saying. Ritz and Henry say the wave
wa launched exactly the same way that you believe but
that it then travels on its path regardless of any subsequent
changes of motion of the source.

> Thats what the observations tell us.

No, SR says it travels at c as viewed from the source
but that the geometry is such that it travels at c as
measured in other inertial frames too. It is hard to
explain unless you know the particular geometry but
the nearest analogy I can give is that all objects above
your head have an eleavation above the horizon of
90 degrees regardless of their altitude. Objects farther
away (say 100m ahead of you) will have a different
elevation for different altitudes.

Wrong way round, all the observations confirm SR
(or more accurately GR including gravity).

No, I only argue that waving the source around _after_
the light has been emitted cannot influence the path of
the light. I know (and I hope you do too) that refractive
index changes the speed and can change the direction
such as in a prism but that is another matter and
probably not contentious. It is your suggestion that the
motion of the source continues to influence the motion
of the light when it is long gone (as shown in the applet)
that I consider bizarre.

I like the name THE_ONE. Michael Jackson sang it in Billy Jeans.
"She said I AM THE ONE. In a dance. In the floor..."

"She said I AM THE ONE. In a dance. In the floor..."

Nice to see Michael Jackson fans.

Humanitarian crimes to fascist somebody in terroristic psychological
forms. You don't know him how he is in real life. You cannot fascist-
terrorize people, it is what people in Abu Ghraib did, aimed toward
personal destruction. Are you like that in real life, telling co-
workers that they are mental psychopaths? You would be fired for
cruelty. In fact it is you who displays mental illness and terroristic
qualities of fascist nature in subliminative supremacy, dominating
terrorizing criminal of mind supremacy and torture. American or
British, rarely others, go figure a nazi deathcamp of what people say
to those raising negative discussion on Einstein. Incredible people
online. When I was first talked to like that I actually ended up in a
mental institute for a week, but not before. The power of online.

I never in my life experienced anything like that. I actually feared
going online for months after that.

We hear of psychos like the Texas chainsaw massacre and killers
in horror movies, but that kind of psycho that you are talking about
for somebody doing who knows what refutung einstein is literal
humanitarian terrorism. You can't do that to anybody and you should go
to jail for criminal psychotic stalking yourself. It means that the
only
psycho attacking people violently here is you and if you do that to
an unaware person, he gets very scared and molested criminally.
