And I'm NOT thinking of GPS, because GPS is not an example of this. This measurement HAS been made with decaying subatomic particles. If you think that this is all just hypothetical stuff and hasn't been seen in real life, and so that is your avenue for denying it, that's wrong. You just need to become more familiar with the VAST wealth of experimental information that has been gathered. > Prediction is > not a measurement....every SR observer predicts that every observed > clock is running slow. No, every inertial observer MEASURES that a clock moving inertially relative to it is running slow. This is documented. It is more than just a prediction.

Because this is true for EVERY clock. No idiot....it is not true for every clock. If A is predicted to run faster than B then B must predict that A is running slower than A. These conclusions are based on the GPS clock compared to the ground clock. From the ground clock point of view the GPS clock is running fast by a factor of 38 us/day. From the GPS point of view the ground clock is approx. 38us/day running slow. Ken Seto >Anything that is true > for EVERY clock cannot be for a PREFERRED clock only.

No, Ken, that is not the case. I realize that this what makes sense to you, but it is not the case. Your common sense is telling you a lie. This is really basic stuff, and you're stuck on it. > These conclusions are based on the GPS clock compared to the ground > clock.

The GPS is not an example of this, because they are not two clocks moving INERTIALLY with respect to each other. The statement in relativity is NOT that all clocks moving relative to a clock at rest run slow. The statement is that clocks moving INERTIALLY relative to another clock will run slow. The GPS satellite is not an example of this statement and so can't be used to test this statement. However, there are lots of experimental tests that show that the following is true: In the frame where clock A is at rest, then clock B moving relative to A will run slow. In the frame where clock B is at rest, then clock A will run slow. This is experimentally demonstrated, even though you think to yourself, "But that can't be." When your common sense comes in conflict with experimental demonstration, then it's your common sense that is wrong somehow. > > Ken Seto > > >Anything that is true > > for EVERY clock cannot be for a PREFERRED clock only.

No, Ken, this is wrong. It is not only predicted that A will run SLOWER than B in B's frame, but it is MEASURED that A does in fact run slower than B in B's frame. > > > In the frame where B is at rest, B is running faster than A and C. > > No....B is never run faster than A. This assertion is based on the > bogus SR assertion that B is adopting the laws of physics of the > absolute frame. No, it is not an empty assertion. It is an experimentally demonstrated FACT. You can deny reality all you want, but reality does not conform to your common sense, Ken. What your common sense is telling you is a LIE, Ken, and you have to force yourself to abandon it. It's the only way you'll start to make sense of what is actually OBSERVED in fact. > > Ken Seto > > > In the frame where C is at rest, C is running faster than A and B. > > Since this property is also true for B and C, then it can't be that A > > is preferred in any way.
