Really? Where does Maxwell say that? Please derive this equation from
Maxwell's equations or point to where it is derived?

I see you couldn't answer this. Telling, isn't it?

Space is something like a vast turbulent, low pressure gas in which the
presence of 'fields' is as important as that of matter. If a particular region
could be identified for speed reference pirposes, a natural EM speed of
approximately c could be assigned to it. However because of its rare nature,
most light emitted in or passing through that region is only very slightly
affected.
This is a pretty simple theory. I don't see your problem.

When light speeds up, the region accelerates in the opposite direction.

The *region* accelerates? Where are the borders of the region that
accelerates in the opposite direction? If light were to accelerate at
some point in a room, how much of the region in that room accelerates
in the opposite direction?

Or did you just have a hand cramp and mistakenly hit the Send button
in the middle of the spasm?

Diaper, whenever YOU move, the earth moves backwards.

More hand cramps: the earth is not "the region" that "accelerates" in your
example.

PD knows basic physics much better than you do -- if we take your posts as
evidence of your knowledge.

Diaper never includes physics in his messages...so how would you know?

And speaking of "basic physics", basic physics included the knowlege that you
keep denying, that the vacuum speed of light in any inertial reference frame is
c.

.....that's an unproven postulate, moron. It is merely a prediction of LET....a
consequence of the mythical LTs.
Einstein used the conclusion of LET to start his stupid theory then worked the
math backwards. ...and a lot of suckers fell for it....and still do...

Light does not "speed up", except when making the transition from high
dielectric constant medium to low (or when leaving a very high gravity region -
but that is not an inertial frame).

The speed of light in transit varies up and down continuously. It also
experiences a slow but steady loss of energy, which accounts for the cosmic
redshift.

All religion involves selling a nonexistant product to gullible fools. Einstein cleverly exploited this principle with his second postulate.
