Hey idiot we are talking about the actual rate of accumulation of
clock seconds on each clock which is frame independent....you example
of speed is frame dependent. Why do you keep on trying to stray away
from the actual discusion by giving stupid and irrelevant examples??

Then why don't you give us an experiment that compares two clocks A
and B....where A is accumulating more clock seconds than B and at the
same time where B is accumulating more clock seconds than A.

You cannot say whether actual rate of accumulation of clock seconds is
frame independent or not on the basis of common sense or logic alone.
You need to look at experimental results. Your assertion that is is
frame-independent is not an argument and it is counter to ample
experimental evidence. Denying experimental evidence that is on record
is a pointless venture.

You were trying to make an argument on LOGICAL grounds that only one
relationship can be true: Either A is greater than B, or B is greater
than A.
Well, I've just given you a clear case where it is true that A is
greater than B *and* B is greater than A. (The speed of the Buick is
greater than the speed of the Buick, and the speed of the Buick is
greater than the speed of the Dodge.) It is easy to draw this on the
chalkboard so that this happens.
Therefore, there must be something wrong with the logical argument
that only one relationship can be true, since here is a case where
both relationships are true.

Finally, since it's obvious even to you that this can happen for
speeds, you claim it is not possible for clock rates. Why you would
make this blank assertion that is true in one case and not in the
other, is just a mystery to me, Ken. How do you KNOW, other than just
relying on your common sense, which is unreliable?

I've given you this experiment before, and I just mentioned it again.
The lifetimes of decaying subatomic particles have been compared in
just this fashion, and that is just one example.

Ken, it would help if you would READ the references that have been
given to you, which may mean taking yourself to a library. That is
where you will find the experimental documentation. I don't know why
you expect a full explanation of them here, just because you can't
motivate yourself to get out of your chair. Are you helpless?

Why not answer the guy's question rather than insult him? Show a quote

Heck, just show a quote from any book on SR that simply states an absolute
frame does exist.
