So even though you know you have spent 15 years having convinced nobody of your cause, you still think you are right? Guess that 1 year of college sure does trump the 4 of undergraduate study and 4-6 of PhD study of a normal physicist.

Your equations are still going to give the wrong answers.

That is correct. Scientists invented nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons are their problem.

There is more time on the clock that is not moving. The clock in S' is slower. This is something I have noticed about scientists. Even when they say something that is identical to what I say, they do it in a contentious manner, as though they are saying it in a better manner. No, sorry, it does not matter whether you say that S has a greater interval of time or that a clock in S is faster than a clock in S'. You are nit-picking in an effort to pretend that you said something different than what I said.

Well, you are the one claiming they give conflicting observations. Go ahead and prove what you say. |
