Well, what we have today is show business, not science. Â*Scientists

any of those things using the mathematics that I use. Â*So there is the

and purpose which they work together to achieve. Â*When I say, "Use
velocity of light instead of speed of light, and the question of light
traveling at c in two different frames of reference is solved,"
scientists ignore it because what they are doing is more complicated,
and they have already done all of these impressive things using speed
of light and the distance contraction. Â*What scientists are doing is
seeking attention for the purpose of getting government funding for
various experiments, as you say, which give scientists a comfortable
life without having to do much. Â*The more you can keep people confused
who control public revenues, the easier you see life to be.

Have you ever applied for research funding? Have you ever even met a
"scientist" as you so name any person who do relativity research?
What is this agenda of the scientists? Are you making this up?
I have participated, colaborated and being the leader in several
research projects, and I can assure you that what you say about "give
scientists a comfortable life without having to do much" is not only a
lie but also a gratuite offense. Most researchers have to do research
because, especially in the academic world, your job continuity depends
on the researcher ability to:
a)get appropiate funding to be able to buy research equipment and
support a research team, including graduate students and technicians.
b)obtain good results from the funding (that is being very efficient)
that allow the team to publish results in conferences and indexed
journals, and finally,
c) use your research to improve your teaching.
Better universities and research institutions usually have also the
better researchers.
Nobody will get any funding without a good idea (among other things,
the available funding is always less than the requests from the
applications). And if you do not work, not only you will not get any
future money, but your job position may be shaking.
Regarding the researcher personal income, you'd be surprise at the
difference in income of a Ph.D. with say 10 years experience as a
professor, as compared with the income of the same person in the
industry.
Of course, some people get the Nobel Prize and for sure all of them
have dedicated most of their time to do research, because when you
enter into this profession, the important thing is not how much you
earn or how little you work, but the pleasure of being working in the
frontier of science.
So please get some real information before writing nonsense.
Well, the real information is that all scientists today agree that the
arm of an interferometer, the length of a train, ect., are contracted
in length if they move. So I say, I don't believe it. I think you
are doing the mathematics wrong. What you appear to me to be saying
is that you have the right to do the mathematics wrong if a majority
of scientists decide to do it that way. My opinion is that you have
the right to do the mathematics any way you choose to do it, even if
you are not in a majority, but incorrect mathematics is not generally
as successful as correct mathematics. I would continue to search for
the correct mathematics regardless of how successful scientists are
with the incorrect mathematics.
