I wasn't talking to you, load of crap:

besides, since you have killfiled me (6 times now), you can't read my

It's a public forum, admittedly. Of course, one can easily get c+v in one
case, where one has a stationary observer and a stationary light source,
and an object moving at speed v towards that source. The closing velocity
is therefore c+v, minus a small error since the observer can't be
infinitely far away. I doubt closing velocity is directly measurable,
however.

The moving object, of course, will see things slightly differently; it
will see a light beam with a higher frequency and shorter wavelength, but
with speed c.

As for Hex's killfile(s) -- well, AIUI Hex is on record for stating that
Einstein postulates c = 0 in SR; therefore, it's quite possible the
killfile request hasn't quite reached his newsreader yet. How he can
actually read your posts therefore is far from clear; maybe he's using
superluminal muons or something... :-)

He's quite right, I've killfiled him 6 times already.
The moron is so stupid he doesn't realize a killfile can be deleted
and recreated, I can read or not read his **** as I choose.
Now and then I lift the ban so I can take the **** out of the third
kacksacker, but others do such a fine job of it that I don't need to.

Those superluminal ghost muons really bug you, don't they?
It's all explained at
http://www.androcles01.pwp.blueyonde...mart/Smart.htm
where you'll find a ghost train in real spacetime and numbers even
a 12-year-old can understand. I know this because my granddaughter
asked for help with her homework and she tells her pals about my new
car,
http://www.androcles01.pwp.blueyonde...escatalina.gif
which I'm told is "lush", a word kids now use in place of "kewl", which is
of course archaic to them. Ya gotta be with it.
There are indications that she is slightly more interested in boys than
in physics, though. Its to be expected, I suppose.


As Tom Roberts says, "Real has nothing to do with it" and he should
know, he learned SR from "Spacetime Physics" that you can buy
from amazon.com. How many shares in amazon.com Roberts has
I can't tell you.
Dork Van de merde learned his SR from a Belgian whore in Brussels
who gave him syphilis, a venereal disease that makes you spermless
and negative sqrt()less.
Now that he's lost his friend Jan Beilawski to logic he's quite desperate
to impress new ones by talking about crap.

The fact that you are too stupid to figure out how to
use ought to tell you that even usenet is beyond your
intellectual reach.

Next I look at the Doppler effect. BTW it depends on which frame you
are in
