From a legal point of view, both the front observer and the back
observer on the train have an alibi. Because of the limit on the speed
of light,

What limit?
===============================================
neither front nor back can do anything to change the events.
Therefore, the order of events don't matter. The front had no way to
know immediately that the lightening

Seto didn't mention any lightening.
Lightning may lighten the clouds, or the clouds may be lightening at
dawn.
Not only are you so stupid as to invent non-existent speed limits,
you write nonsensically too, drosen.

What you said is true only if length contraction is a geometric
projection effect. If length contraction is a physcial effect as you
asserted then the bug dies is not frame dependent.

In IRT length there is no length cntraction. Instead the light path
length of a moving meter stick is shorter or longer than the
observer's meter stick. The light path length of the observer's meter
stick is assumed to be the physical length of the observer's meter
stick. You can see that the IRT interpretation eliminates all the
paradoxes of SR. IRT is availble in the following link:

Did you know that you make diffraction gratings cry when you pretend they

Wrong .. not with a moving source. Only with a moving observer. Get it

No, Ken, that is not right. Physical effects can also be frame
dependent.

I don't know where you ever got the completely stupid idea that
physical effects are frame independent and the only frame dependent
effects are geometric effects.

That is just plain wrong -- and boneheaded.
