Absent differential gravitational wells, that is never observed in nature. Take, for example two astronaut with clocks in intergalactic space, where we can ignore gravitational effects. We will also ignore the effects of Doppler shift here. A and B are observers with identical clocks. That is A and B's clocks ticked synchronously when they were together. ∆t represent a time interval between tick of the clocks. Special relativity predicts that observer A will measure that ∆t_B' = γ ∆t_B where ∆t represent a time interval, v is the relative velocity between A and B, and γ = 1/√(1-v^2/c^2) . Furthermore, special relativity predicts that observer B will measure that ∆t_A' = γ ∆t_A Neither measure the other's clock running fast. But each measures the other's clock running slow. Here's the part your brain can't seem to handle. You can be observer A or you can be observer B. You cannot be both simultaneously. There is no contradiction. Special Relativity correctly predicts the observations. Physics FAQ: What is the experimental basis of special relativity? http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/SR/experiments.html

No, I don't have to be a rest with respect to anything. If there is a clock moving with respect to me with velocity v, disregarding gravitational affects, accelerations, and Doppler effects, I measure that clock's time interval, ∆t_clock' = γ ∆t_clock where γ = 1/√(1-v^2/c^2) . The measurement agrees with the predictions of special relativity.

The phrase "the exclusive properties of the aether frame" DIRECTLY conflicts with the phrase "there is no preferred frame". Since the latter is part of the principle of equivalence in SR, your claim that "SR uses the exclusive properties of the aether frame" is completely false. Why can't you see that? Also, I've asked you repeatedly for proof of your claim "SR uses the exclusive properties of the aether frame", where SR states that and you cannot do so. Yet you still repeat it as truth. Put up or shut up.

No, he's not asserting that at all. YOU are asserting that. But that is completely counter to what SR asserts.

Only YOU say those properties are exclusive to the preferred frame. Physicists do not.

I'm sorry, Ken, but nonsense results when you use YOUR meanings of physics terms when they are used in other people's theories, like special relativity. You cannot possibly understand what SR says unless you learn and use terms the way they are used in physics. When you see words and make up your own meanings for the words used, you end up with contradictory nonsense. That is exactly what has happened to you for 15 years. > You cannot assume the properties of the > preferred frame and at the same time deny the existence of the > preferred frame. > > Ken Seto >
