Q. Why did Einstein say
the speed of light from A to B is c-v,
the speed of light from B to A is c+v?
A. Because it is true.

Q. Why did Einstein say

Default Cosmology is fun.

I like learning about, say, “ gravitational lensing ”, shown he
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi..._lens-full.jpg
“ Bending light around a massive object from a distant source.

The orange arrows show the apparent position of the background source.
The white arrows show the path of the light
from the true position of the source. ”

Why ? you ask. Because cosmology is fun, gadgets are fun,
ultra-precise GPS clocks / metersticks are fun.

Trashing the IPK ( International Prototype Kilogram ) in favor of
an ultra-precise gravimeter ( i.e. an accelerometer ) in a vacuum
and a huge watt-balance in a vacuum is just plain fun.

Deep thinkers ( a.k.a. kooks ) like physics for
how it reveals “ the mind of God [ and man ] ”.

Imagine two moons orbiting the earth.
It's just simple gravity, right ?
Until they collide.. then it's fireworks.

****ing liar.


Not in this instance. Einstein DID say that tAB = tBA according to his clock
synching definition. Too bad if it wasn't true. He simply changed one of his
clocks to make it so. In this way he made any 'aether' completely redundant.
I suggest you read his 1905 paper if you don't believe this. You clearly know
nothing about the theory you are supporting.

Of course in reality, if A and B are mutually at rest, tAB DOES equal tBA for
the simple reason that light is ballistic and moves at c wrt its source.
Einstein probably knew this but found there was more fame and money to be made
by persevering with his 'alternative aether theory', commonly known as SR.

What makes you believe Art Deco could understand
â?o integer units of action â? ? !


He couldn't understand potty humor if it exeeded one line.
We're like idiot savants with non-overlapping esoteric talents;
so one man's talent can't be seen by the other.


Actually Art Deco understands, and does,
his job very well.


Art works out of the caliballista.org boiler-room,
which is operated by a few Jewish bigots,
and used to intimidate and smear people,
that the bigots target.


Art's job is not to engage in rational, intelligent, moral
discussions to arrive at fundamental truths,


but his job is to smear folks, and obscure threads
on issues that his handlers don't want to have
the public exposed to.


Art does his job in several ways.


1. He ****es out posters,
and gets them off the issue,
and into a ****ing war.


2. He tries to link his victims
with negative images, negative ideas,
and negative people.


3. He appends alt.usenet.kook
to threads he wants to disrupt
in order to instigate a flame war between
the poster, the caliballista, boiler-rook bigots,
and the young boys and sociopaths
who hang out in alt.usenet.kook.


Art does a pretty good job
directing the activities of a few race/religion motivated bigots,
and in exploiting inferiority complexes in a few
sociopaths and young boys,
who tend to boost their egos by demeaning folks.
( Note that Art also exploits the inferiority complexes
of young boys and sociopaths in the serious newsgroups,
and gets some of them to append alt.usenet.kook to posts.


The Republican Party,
and now the Clinton gang
use the same tactics
used by the calaballista.org race motivated bigots,
and the tactic must work,
as they spend millions of dollars
trying to divert the attention of people
from facts and details.


I dare say that if Obama becomes president,
the masses will begin to turn aggressively on the
bigots, media, and politicians who use
smear as a weapon to promote their agenda,
which could not be promote successfully
using logic, intelligence and facts.


Hopefully, when the public gets sick of the
smear tactics, laws will be passed that make
it easy for folks smeared by Institutionalized Bigotry
to collect damages from the individuals and
organization that effected the smears.


The definition of "bigot" is:
"A prejudiced person who is intolerant of any opinions differing
from
his
own."

who have been victims of Institutionalized bigotry

Dear Tom: Obama is a "minority" candidate supported by "minority"
Jews. TIME-Warner and CNN network are hugely biased toward Obama.
The publishers of science texts are mostly controlled by Jews; and
those love the fact that they make so much money trying to "explain"
Einstein. Einstein was a Jew, and Jews get their egos boosted by
letting him remain unchallenged. So, you could rightly say that Jews
are the primary reason my Einstein disproofs haven't gotten to the
front pages. Do you agree? :-) - NoEinstein -


I don't know what the "primary reason"
for the lack of acceptance of your "Einstein disproofs" is,
as I have not read your "Einstein disproofs",


but any idea, if it is powerful enough,
can overcome the Jewish bias in media.


Regarding your comment:
"Obama is a "minority" candidate
supported by "minority" Jews."


Although Obama has given lip service to Jews
in order to avoid being "Jimmy Cartered",
there is no doubt that the Clintons, the Bushes,
and McClain are owned lock, stock, and barrel by Jews,
and that Obama is not in their employee,
nor will he be intimidated by them,
once he becomes president.


Considering that Osama is the only threat to
the Jewish agenda, I wouldn't be surprised
if the Mossad finds themselves another
"James Earl Ray", and have him assassinate Obama,
so the deed can be blamed on Rednecks in general,
in order to instigate an enormous conflict between
Blacks and Whites, and get Jews back into control,
pulling the strings on either Clinton or McClain,
as they did on the Bushes.

Dear Tom: *Shame on you! *Don't put violent ideas into anyone's head!
The most divisive thing would be for any of our candidates for any
office to be harmed. *America must not let that sort of "remedy" be
part of her legacy! *- NoEinstein -


- NoEinstein - makes a good point when he states:
"The most divisive thing would be for any of our candidates for any
office to be harmed.",

and as can be seen,
I called attention to the fact that the War-for-Profit Gang
has a long history of doing "divisive things"
to set one class against another, one race against another,
one religion against another, etc.,

and that the Gang would greatly profit if they
found themselves another "James Earl Ray".

To be forewarned is to be forearmed.

Dear Tom: The "machines of war" lobby push their wares here and
there. But your idea that those same people foment dissension just to
sell their wares seems more like a movie plot than real life. Our
culture-against-culture relationships manage to get us into conflicts
often enough so that little outside influence is... "needed". Until
we can "convert our swords into plow shears", the world won't benefit
from the unity of purpose that I dream can come about.
Though you see how harmful isolated violence can be in a broader
context, repeating your "suggestion to the weak" should be avoided. —

It cannot be both.


Why not?


One has to either explain how a wave can give an
impeccable impression of being a particle, or explain how particles can
give rise to very convincing wavelike properties. To me the former is
impossible the latter exceedingly difficult. You may see it differently.


A US quarter exhibits the properties of a US president. It also
exhibits the properties of a carnivorous bird.


A US quarter is incapable of starting an unnecessary war without having
even the vaguest plan as to what to do after it had been 'won' neither
is it capable of eating flesh so a US quarter exhibits neither the
properties of a president nor of a carnivorous bird.


Well, the electron is incapable of always being localizable, and so it
also fails at exhibiting the properties of a particle. And an electron
is incapable of delivering its momentum in continuous fashion, and so
it also fails at exhibiting the properties of a wave. To Tom's point,
this indicates that an electron is neither a particle or a wave in
this sense, though it exhibits properties of both.


The blame doesn't rest on the electron, of course. The problem is our
assumption that physical entities can be exhaustively and mutually
exclusively characterized as particles or as waves. That assumption
now appears to be poor.


The problem has been our lack of imagination. *Newton's particle was a
little bit too simple a model for the electron but it was OK for
mathematizing gravity. *Maxwell & all his followers recognized that
waves are the property of something real - not an existent in their
own right, as this supposition could not explain interference etc.
These phenomena need the possibility of negative & positive values
that can add to zero: this is not a property of existence, which can
be modeled by the simple integer numbers 1 and 0; hence the rational
belief in the aether in the 19th Century.
So, Gentlemen, back to the drawing boards & sharpen your imagination!- Hide quoted text -

Dear Maxwell: *Lorentz's explanation for the nil result of the M-M
experiment "allowed that" objects will contract due to velocity
(sic). *His equation, that forms the diviser under E = mc^2,
disregards the need for an EXPANSION of each object through the 180
degrees of the apparatus's rotation in a horizontal plane. *That is
like your conundrum with the " 1 and 0", but without a -1. *Lorentz
thought that was just fine, because he was biased to believe that
since 'c' is the maximum velocity (sic), objects would only need to
contract (sic).


Interferometers are part of my niche. *Because waves have both
"crests" and "valleys" they indeed have 1s, 0s, and minus1s. *But the
sine curve variation of the true "photon" based light is due to
angular variation in going to the point of view on the target, not due
to the varying longitudinal vibrations of the "waves". *— NoEinstein —

Dear Maxwell: Twice you have mentioned “James C. Maxwell”. Was he a
relative of yours? Two of the biggest questions in science have been:
“What is light? And... What is gravity.” My reasoning shows both of
those to be ether effects. The former is "speeding" ether. The
latter is varying ether flow and density. Though I keep "looking", I
haven’t found any natural occurrence that can't be explained by a
varying density, polar ether. — NoEinstein —

Dear jem: I am someone LEAST likely to base what I say on what anyone
else wrote! There are no coffee-table books on science in my home!
As a kid I wondered what light is; and... gravity is. The
explanations given to me in high school and college didn't satisfy
me. All that I "glean" from the media's laymanized reports on science
are the observed effects. I mostly ignore the causes given. Instead,
I reason things through on my own. I am very critical of my own
ideas, because I know I must be RIGHT, not just cocky. — NoEinstein —

A clown who creates his own crackpot theory is no scientist.

Q. Why did Einstein say
the speed of light from A to B is c-v,
the speed of light from B to A is c+v?
A. Because it is true.

Q. Why did Einstein say
the speed of light from A to B is c-v,
the speed of light from B to A is c+v,
the time for each journey is the same?
A. Because he was a crackpot, unskilled and unaware of it.

Dear Headmaster: Education should involve free and open-minded
discussion. Character attacks are an escape due to your own
inadequacy to discuss the issues of science involved. Can you be
objective about science? — NoEinstein —
