You said you wanted an explanation, so I gave it to you. John
requested it be at the level of a public school student, so I did
that.

1. The above is not SR. Gravity is not dealt with in SR.
2. SR does not violate the law of conservation of energy, as has been
abundantly explained to you previously. Have you forgotten all that in
such a short period of time? Do you remember what you wore yesterday?

The validity of SR and GR is not contingent on the M-M experiment.
They have been thoroughly tested by dozens of other experiments and
would be just as valid today if Michelson or Morley had never been
born.

This is a historically inaccurate statement. The notion of spacetime
came directly from classical electrodynamics and the principle of
relativity, the latter known already to apply to classical Newtonian
mechanics.

>  The

This is not historically correct, either. See the above.

That is also factually incorrect. The "all known principles of
engineering" do not say what you think they say. If you think they do,
then you need to state explicitly what you think those principles are,
and to point to a link where those principles are stated. Otherwise it
is a "known principle of engineering" that you have manufactured in
your head. In fact, the "principles of engineering" all adhere to the
standards of metrology laid out by NIST, and NIST standards are all
completely consistent with relativity.

There is no need to "counter" your "New Science" on a newsgroup, John.
The test of a theory in science is done with experimental data, not by
arguing and posturing on a newsgroup. When you have developed your
theory as you say you intend to do over the next few decades, and when
you have data in hand that confirm your New Science and are counter to
the predictions of relativity, then you will be onto something. Until
then, this is all just posturing, like a letter to the editor in the
newspaper.

Dear Burt: The notion that there are waves in the ether went back to
the time dunces thought light needed a medium to travel in. The
potential slowing of light while passing through even a very long
interferometer is tiny. No experiment ever designed can detect a
slowing (or speedup) due to ether drag. That's because ether NURTURES
the passage of light, due to the fact that IOTAs (smallest enery units
of the ether) have a tangential velocity of 'c'.

My X, Y, and Z interferometer easily detects the speed-up or slow-down
of light, because such measures the LATERAL movement of the light beam
in traveling to a 45 degree mirror. The following link explains the
principle. — NoEinstein —

The last word has nothing to do with it, John. In science, it doesn't
matter who has the last word in a discussion, although it seems to be
keenly important to you (and to mpc775). And in science, TRUTH is not
determined by the proposer, but by experimental measurement. When you
are ready to put your ideas forward according to *that* test, then you
will be doing science.

I do think it's telling that your New Science is not only in conflict
with relativity, it is also in conflict with grammar school science.
This says that your problem is not with Einstein at all, but with your
third grade science teachers. It's rather interesting to me that you
do not understand what is clearly understood by third graders. Doesn't
it worry you at all that a third grade science teacher would look at
what you've written and hand it back to you as unacceptable work?
