This reminds me of the Young/Forbes toothed-wheel of 1891- the toothed-
wheel observed two line of sight light sources that were separated by
a distance- and determined that their distances were instant and
simultaneous through the aperture of the wheel. This at once, created
extreme criticism because it predicted something that was not
anticipated like the results of the MM experiment.

It is the models which produce the philosophical paradoxes. If
Michelson would have predicted an aether- relativity would have lived
an everlasting life. But, this did not happen.

Actually, for the time being, relativity does have an everlasting
life as there has never been an observation that contradicts a
prediction of relativity. It remains out best theory of gravitation,
matter, space and time.

I'd have liked to have seen your article on gyros,
re relativity. anyway, "paradoxy" is simply attempts
to resolve between "orthodoxy" and "heterodoxy,"
with the paradoxes of Xeno taken as exemplars
relating to the convergence of sums of geometrical series;
the real problem is Minkowski's bogus "spactimey" orthodoxy,
and all of the lightconeheads up to and beyond Feynman:
totally obfusfacatory; simply use quaternionsa,
wherein Hamilton's lagnuage of vector mechamics uses the "real,
scalar" part to be the time "dimension."

Dirk, immortal fumble?


paul andersen has play the mathemagic trick in the twins’ paradox.
Now, he is demonstrating that he does not understand scientific
method. The little professor from Norway (Trondheim to be exact) is
an illiterate in science. What do you expect from an Einstein
Dingleberry anyway? :-)

Koobee Wublee hopes the sperm lover will do as you wish. Why don’t
you haul it away as a fumble from Koobee Wublee? Bookmark it, and
save Koobee Wublee the work in the future. Come on, paul. Do it.
Oh, still sore, eh? :-) Looking for every possible opportunities to
get back at Koobee Wublee? shrug

Quite.
It is quite clear that the Wubleean version of the scientific
method is way beyond my mental abilities.

Your argument are as lethal as always.

For example, you proved me wrong when I in this paper:
http://www.gethome.no/paulba/pdf/LTconsistent.pdf
thought it was possible to set three clocks to zero
at the instant when they were co-located:
http://tinyurl.com/34dv5p8

And you made me aware that I in this paper:
http://www.gethome.no/paulba/pdf/Stellar_aberration.pdf
had confused parallax and aberration:
http://tinyurl.com/nje25b

And you also proved that even if it is experimentally
proven that the velocity of the star contributes nothing
to stellar aberration, the velocity of the star is
very much important in determining this aberration.

that was funny, although I don't usually link
to stuff, and did not. poor Kooby Doobyy and his tired aetherism.

I suppose that he takes Russel's illinguistic paradoxes on faith,
anyway -- praise Lawd Berty!

MandM did not refute or confirm an aether, theory of;
the very first page of their report mentions the regular anamoly
that they found in the experiment.

anyway, since our comprehension of the properties of atoms
in "free space, whose index of refraction is nearly one, like air"
the aether is of no use, what ever. for example,
to explain the ttoally wavelike behavior of light,
adduced in Young's two-pinhole experiment etc.

If Michelson would have predicted an aether- relativity would have lived
