Wow .. two close-to-a-compliment from you in one week.

We'd see them glow with the visible light they emitted if they did

Approximately every 6 months to a year I say something braindead and the wingnut brigade clamps onto it like a liferaft. I might be due for another but this ain't it.

I have no god and no religion too (very John Lennon). And yes, Einstein was wrong about some things .. he was only human. What do you think I've said that is contrary to Einstein (or at least your misunderstandings of him .. you certainly don't understand SR, which is very simple, so I doubt you managed to understand anything else) ? |
