Hey idiot....every SR observer claims that an observed clock runs slow.

Hey prediction is comprised of gravitational effect and SR effect.

Look at equations 33-36 and the reasoning of the derivation, Ken.

You really should read the Ashby's whole article.

For any given observer, the time dilation due relative radial velocity
is given by

∆t' = γ ∆t

where ∆t represent a time interval, v is the relative velocity
between A and B, and γ = 1/√(1-v^2/c^2) .

The degree of time dilation is observer dependent. Suppose you and I
have different velocities with respect to Clock A. Of course we each
measure time dilation

∆t_A' = γ ∆t_A

where ∆t represent a time interval, v is the relative velocity
between A and B, and γ = 1/√(1-v^2/c^2) .

But, having different relative velocities to clock A, we measure
different values for ∆t_A'. PD come along with yet another relative
velocity to clock A and get yet another value for ∆t_A' .

Time dilation is certainly observer dependent. For non zero v,

∆t_A' > ∆t_A
