For those who are not aware, every so often i try to convince josx of
something. Today its "newton is wrong". Perhaps ill have more luck
this time.

Jos, its aparrent newtownian mechanics is something you know and love,
and something you will not give up on. You have said that newtonian
mechanics has been proven right (with snookerball references...) and
has not been proven wrong. You will not listen what any of us say
about Mercury or GPS, so i thought this might do the trick.

The standard distance equation that uses acelleration in newtonian
mechanics goes like this:

d=(1/2)(a)(t^2)

Very simple and works for most things.

Say I want to go to Proxima Centauri, and have an engine and fuel
supply that can deliver a constant acelleration of 1 g for an
indefinite amount of time. Oh, and before you say this is just a
thought experiment - keep in mind that you love thought experiments
and think SR is bunk based upon them.

Proxima is roughly 4.3 light years from earth. Given a Vi of 0, I
shall calculate how long it would take this ship to go from Earth to
Proxima. Note that I will not be stopping. Makes things easier to
calculate.

Remember, c=3x10^8m/s in a vacuum, and 1g = 9.8m/s^2

(4.3 ly)(365 ld / 1 ly)(24 lh / 1 ld)(3600 s / 1 lh)(3x10^8 m/s) =
(1/2)(9.8m/s^2)(t^2)

Solving for t^2, I get....

t^2= 8.302x10^15 s^2
t= 9.1x10^7 s, or 2.9 years

Wait.

What the fuck? 2.9 years to go to an object that is 4.3 light years
away? Hmm.

d=v/t

4.3 ly = v/2.9 years

Nothing can go faster than c in a vacuum, (that I know of), so v
should not be > 1.

v= 1.48

Intesresting, nearly 1.5 times lightspeed in a vacuum. Nothing can go
faster than light, therfore newton is flawed. All it takes is 1
contradiction. Newton has errors in its domain of applicability.
Whoops. Newtonian mechanics has no method of capping the velocity of
a massive object, but SR does. Interesting. Can you explain this
paradox away?

Since newton is wrong from my above work, i can easily reason the
rest of newton is also wrong. What velocity would a SR brick have if
it had the same kinetic energy as a brick that was moving at c in
newtonian mechanics.

The scientific community uses SR to calculare the kinetic energy of
things like protons in the acellerators. Lets show the disparity in a
mathematical form.

Newton solves for Ek by Ek= (1/2)(m)(v^2)

SR solves for Ek by Ek = (1/sqrt (1- (v^2/c^2) ) )(1/2)(m)(v^2)
Note: I am not using relativistic mass

Lets compare, and see the difference. The awnser is interesting.

Since I will set them equal to eachother, the factors (1/2) and (m)
will cancel out, leaving....

Vnewton^2 = (Vsr^2)/(1/sqrt (1 - (Vsr^2/c^2) ) )

Hmm, mass doesnt matter for this. Yay.

Since im setting Vnewton = c, I can call it c^2 now.

c^2= (Vsr^2)/(1/sqrt (1 - (Vsr^2/c^2) ) )

This is a trick i learned on this newsgroup, and now i see how it has
use.

I will now say c=1, for ease of computation. What does our equation
look like now?

1= (Vsr^2)/(1/ sqrt (1 - Vsr^2)

Oooh c^2 = 1, so things drop out! Whee.

Lets do some manipulation....

sqrt (1 - Vsr^2) = Vsr^2

More.

1 - Vsr^2 = Vsr^4

More.

1= Vsr^4 + Vsr^2

Ooooh. I can graph that.

When i do, I get a parabola shaped graph, and when i use the
intersect function on my calculator, i get .786. Facinating, if a
brick is moving at c in newtownian mechanics, it has a kinetic energy
that corrisponds to a velocity of 78.6% c in SR.

Now you see jos, If both newton and SR were right, Vsr would be 1. It
is not. Since i showed that newton is wrong from above, the only
mainstream theory we have to work with is SR. Given the body of
evidence that is showed to you so-very-often, i can also conclude that
SR is "right".

Jos, unless you can show me a flaw in my simple algebra, you can
nolnger claim newton is right.

Im willing to argue this to the end of the earth, because it
reinforces what i know and its just fun to do.

Note: I understand and acknowledge that a theory cannot be proven
correct, its just easier to say "right".

I can try. Becides, doing it the way i do it lets people comments on
what i do and expose any misconceptions or errors in my work, and
bring out new things i havent considered.

After doing that, i finally understand exactly why newtonian
mechanics and SR are incompatable.

In Newtonian mechanics, there is no speed-limit. You are assuming
relativity in order to prove Newton wrong, which is the wrong way
to go about it. If you want to disprove Newton, you will have to
do it without relying on relativity, i.e. by doing an experiment
that directly proves Newton wrong, not by performing a thought
experiment that pits relativity against Newtonian mechanics.

Correct. Where does F=m*a say Mercury can't behave like it does, and
GPS clock changes are due to their changed surroundings and not because
of SR-magic, Newton's laws predict the clocks on satalites will run
differently.

Looks ok, except that you ignored possible friction. We have never done
this, we don't know the frictions involved. Friction might very well
be minimal, or it may very well be significant, don't know.

Is there a problem?
You think we can't break the light-barrier until we actually do like with

Sigh.

What paradox. Why do you put a lightbarrier there. God? Einstein?
Did Einstein try to break the lightbarrier for a long time with a lot
of different engines, and after decades he found it couldn't be done?
Or did he throw some catbones on a piece of paper, spit on his pen,
and imagined away.

I'm not bothering with the rest after this kind of mistakes.

Indeed not! :)
Not just like that. There may be high friction involved at those speeds,
but that's no different then with the soundbarrier. There is no reason
for c to be a limit "just because".

Interesting. SRists make the exact mistake they claim i make (which i
don't make at all).

What they claim often?
That i proof SR wrong by mixing in Newton.
Why they do it?
They got nothing else to say. Besides "you are right, i am wrong", which
is a pathological impossibility for any true SRist (even more impossible
for university teachers and professors i guess).

Friction against what, aether? I doubt those 10 hydrogen atoms per
cubic meter or so are going to put up much of a fight.

Are you saying there is a mysterious friction that pushes against
objects leaving our star system that is signifigant enough to keep the
average velocity of an object to below c?

Untill i have reason to believe otherwise, yes.

We had supersonic bullets in the mid 20th century, did we not? What
goes faster than light? Nothing. I welcome experimental proof of
something otherwise.

It is hard to cite experiment and SR when you disagree with both.

Now you know how we feel. What must i do, drag out the observations of
Mercury's orbit and see if they match SR predictions? Would you trust
my work if i did it?

Since i have not done them myself, it might be a good exercise to

I will ask here too, because you tend to ignore the more complicated
questions.

Friction with what?

Free space is not atmosphere.

What does aether have to do with real-world friction. Aether is an
hypothetical-voodoo material dreamed up by phycisists and the beginning
of this century because they didn't feel like doing real physics. It's
"the medium of light" and "it shortens and stretches object who move
through it". Yeah, sure dudes. How does the brandy taste.

Perhaps not.

No. However, the friction exists, if you're accelerating a significantly
dense body like a spacecraft, those few atoms may be like feathers in
front of a car. However, if you're accelerating lone particles, those
feathers become cars in themselves. So, i was just cutting you off before
you could drag the particle accelerators to the argument. Hint: you got
nowhere to go, nowhere to hide, i know all your moves.

No.
Newton would mathmodel Mercury's orbit until he had a rational explanation
for it. Space-curving is not an explanation for Mercury's orbit, it's an
insult. Space doesn't curve, it's the void, only object curve. Co-ordinate
systems are straight. Why do you think meter-sticks are always straight
and not curved.

Eric, this is exactly the wrong way round. You cannot just assume c_0 is the
maximum possible speed in order to prove SR. In fact, the limit of c_0 is
/derived/ in SR from the fact that c_0 is constant for all IS's.

So what needs to be demonstrated is the constancy of c_0, from which the
Lorentz-transformation then follows as well as the relativistic speed limit.

For the constancy of c_0: Michelson-Morley; laser-reflecion from a mirror on
the moon.
For the Lorentz-transformation: muons crossing the atmosphere; the fact that
particle accelerators work at all; the fact that particle collisions yield
the energies they are supposd to.

We have had that over and over again. Trouble is, Jos doesn't have the
brains to comprehend indirect evidence. He rejects everything he can't
imagine with his little mind, that's why he also sees paradoxes where there
aren't any.

I don't think it's /derived/ at all. The theory hits paradox at c, so
nothing must go faster.

Lorentz-transformations hit paradox at c, even worse paradoxes for >c.

No, and no.
MM doesn't proof multiobserver constancy (1way-1beam-multiobserver-lightspeed-
-constancy-in-a-vacuum), Moon-mirror reflections don't proof multiobserver
/constancy/.

A joke of an argument. The muons are racing through all kinds of stuff,
they are not "merely observers at rest in their frame".

Say who, the faithfull?
Or unbiased scientists, who only believe on evidence, and never on faith
alone. Because: where were those particle-accelerators when relativity
got adopted? They did'nt exist.

There are so many paradoxes that your mind segfaults, gives up, and starts
worshipping the "proper authorities" on the matter.

I would, IF it was done.
None is done to confirm the basis of the whole modern physics structure:
Postulate-2 of relativity: 1way-1beam-multiobserver-lightspeed-constancy-
-in-a-vacuum. It's a fantasy, and it cannot even work.

Here is a tonight-type task: admit you're wrong, and have accepted pure
paradox as scientific facts. Also admit you are guilty of deluding people.

Then again, that might be the task of a lifetime for you.

Yeah... i'm eagerly awaiting your fumbles :).

Watch this people. This is not about them, it is about *you*, and your
*gullability*. Is there a limit to it, or not, that's what we're going
to find out. ermm, we already found out sortof, but most don't understand
SR so it wasn't an honest chance for you.

Are you going to demand evidence for claims, or are you going to go ahead
and believe anything they tell you, even pure paradox, even though you
know why it is wrong.

No one knows what you will do. They hope you will listen to them regardless
of what they say, i hope you think for yourself. What will happen...?!

I hope you suprise us.

Another, somewhat more subtle effect and confirmation of SR is this;
here at DESY we can accelerate electron, positron and proton bunches in
our HERA machine. Of course, at rest these bunches would become
separated due to electrostatic repulsion between the like-charged
particles, but when we accelerate them to 27.5 GeV (i.e. highly
relativistic), the rate at which they separate is much lower, from our
lab frame. Time dilation, you see. As a result we see a tighter beam
than we would if SR didn't apply.

Why was Relativity accepted back then, where was your evidence back then.

Muons?
Nobody had seen them
Particle accelerators?
Nobody had seen them
MMX?
Doesn't proof it

You are btw lying: you would see a tighter electron beam whether you
believed in SR or not.

The problem with SR is not that you can't fantasyze some shrapnel
"proof" from all over physics that happens to co-inside with it.

The problem is, everything you say is already suspect, because what you
say comes from a group of people who have accepted SR on faith back then.

Your pseudo-proof for timedilation doesn't resolve the paradoxes of SR.
You use it to delude people into thinking there "is something to it",
however minute and that therefore "the scientists can do how they please".

It's like asking hells-angles to provide the proof that their friends
didn't commit a robery. You be damn sure they figure something.

You, the entire physics community is in the suspect-bench here. We don't
need proof from you, we need your admission that you cannot resolve the
paradoxes in your theory that your group adopted as science on faith
alone. I seriously think that we would be doing science a favor by burning
down the universities, that's the state of things here. Radical? Not as
radical as SR.

Hey Eric.
FTL has not been disproven,
you can not "just say" nothing can go FTL.
therefore.
you are the flawed one here.

186,000 mps + 10,000 mps = 196,000 mps
basic math states you are wrong!
FTL is possible.
fix your equations to use FTL speeds.
and guess what.
They will work.
DUH

You must be the silly fool that thinks asteroid time is running slow
so you have "extra time: before it hits the Earth because it is
moving close to or above lightspeed.

In fact your crap tends to say if it were moving FTL
it would slow (and "even reverse in time:?)

Suprisingly enough, your ideas somewhat mesh with reality.

Yes those things you mention do exist in space but are of an
insignifigant concern, interstellar hydrogen is measured in molecules
per cubic meter, radiation pressure from sunlight falls off at the
square of the distance, and solar wind is a gentle push.

Until you pass the heliopause or if you go "against the current", so
to speak, the force acting upon you will at the very least, make you
go faster.

I must be high, i almost understand what your saying.

Postulate 2 says that the laws of physics work in all intertial
reference frames.

Your "experiment" is unable to be done. I can too think of many
experiments that could falsify SR, like sending a signal faster than
light. I could go on saying that the device cannot work with our
current technology, but that would be rather inane.

This might not be what you have had in mind, but ill shoot anyways.

If i am wrong, then i am wrong. Though i doubt you have the facilities

SR is not pure paradox, does it hurt when you pull such large ideas

Again, make SR falsify itself, really. Name one experiment that has
been done, that falsifys the theory. I say this again, the experiment
has to have been done. You could claim uncle al's experiment falsifys

You deny SR, GR, QM, gotcha.

Intuitive explanations of reality resulted in Elculdian space and
Newtownian mechanics.

Can you explain the hallmark experiment of GR, done in 1916?

During a solar ecclipse, scientists observed the edge of the sun and
noticed there were stars there that were behind the sun. Einstein
predicted this, and that granted his new theory much attention.

BTW, you cannot "tweak" SR/GR until you get the awnser you want,

Indeed, that is what you do: all of the devices you have "invented"
in order to detect light or synchronize clocks required some form
of faster-than-light signaling, or assumed fully Newtonian mechanics
(i.e. no length contraction or time dilation). Thus, you mixed Newton
into relativity.

I fully admit i dont know the history of physics, so keep that in

Isnt it true that relativity made aether useless because even if it

Didnt the MMX experiment show, that if aether actually exists, it does
not affect light as far as we can tell?

The negative result of MMX tells us we cannot determine our velocity wrt
to the aether, so the aether (assuming that it exists) cannot be used as
a privileged frame of reference.

SR assumes every inertial frame is equally privileged which means every
inertial frame is equally non privileged.

In article <5mqfnugel0q28kpgl...@4ax.com>,

The thing about a theory is that it can be "fixed" by adding auxiliary
hypotheses, as Kuhn had talked about. So we had the Maxwellian aether
which was stiffer than steel, but matter could pass through it unimpeded.
Measurements of stellar aberration reassured them in that view, and was
consistent with Fizeau's measurment of light dragging in flowing water,
which seemed to indicate some interaction with a drag coefficient o 0.48,
an auxiliary hypothesis. But the null results of the Michelson-Morley
wxperiment were a surprise because it seemed to imply an aether that gets
dragged along with the Earth. So Lorentz proposed a shortening of matter
in the direction of aether flow, another auxiliary hypothesis.

It was pretty much abandoned before they had to add more auxiliary
hypotheses that dealt with time dilation, the fact that a particle's
kinetic energy can increase without bound even while its speed is below c,
and I don't know what else.

But the thing is, an aether theory can be pounded on and made to work, if
you add enough stuff to it. It's an unsatisfying way to build a theory,
which is why it was abandoned for the two simple postulates of special
relativity. And by "simple" I mean they weren't specifically inserted to
answer an experimental problem.

But because of this certain arbitrariness of theories there's always room
for someone to come on to sci.physics and push an aether theory or
something, and with some legitimacy. You can't *really* say he's wrong,
and he can always claim it would work if as much effort had been put into
that as had been put into relativity.

And then there's blatant cranks that don't even know what problems
relativity solved, and think they can just do away with Einstein and his
speed limit and everything will go back to the mechanics and the
Maxwellian aether of 1860.

Come again: "radiation pressure" ?
Photons do have mass then. SR=falsified because even within SR we now
can attach a coordinate system to a photon. GR=falsified because light
must be infinitely heavy according to it's mass-increase with velocity.

If postulate-2 is untested, then all of modern physics crumbles with it.

FTL signals are already "fact" in SR/GR theories: wormholes.

God has neither been falsified, and the case of his existance is supported
by the existance of "the world", and miracles, just ask the Church.
The case of God is stronger then the case for SR, because of paradoxes in SR,
and because it claims to be science.

where is the Newton that SR would not agree with.

OK,
that is actually no problem,
The history of the "clock"
is what you should start with.
and please...
pay attention to it's faults.

History proved relatvity wrong long ago.
when ships rocking "mad clocks malfunction"

the "rocking" is just a different motion change.
but ..
still the same old "clock fault"

>Isnt it true that relativity made aether useless because even if it

Aether is useless until you tell "what aether is made of"
and Aether (space) full of free electrons "is far from useless though"
In fact,
it seems to be the true facts about "supposed vacuum"
vacuum energy is another "reason" for space full of free electrons"

>Didnt the MMX experiment show, that if aether actually exists, it does

The MMX proved nothing except "the medium light travels in on Earth"
must travel with Earth.
hence the null result.
the medium is dragged with Earth and help in place
by Earths gravity.

MMX was doomed to fail to detect motion,
just as a tennis ball has no clue about the speed of the train when constant.

The only direct thing we know from the experiment is that light

It is worth repeating what has already been posted here countless
times, i.e.

Light has momentum and exerts pressure *in classical physics*
Light has no mass *in classical physics*.
Momentum *is not* mv in classical physics. Momentum is a spatial
derivative of the Lagrangian. For massive particles this *happens* to
be mv. For other systems, it may be other things.

How does a thing give pressure without mass/momentum, what is against
the hypotheses that light is a particle with some mass, pressure votes
for it. It also falsifies GR, is that where your reservation is coming
from with regard to the mass of photons ?

>By the way, do you believe there are such things as atoms

I do believe it because there are experiments *directly* supporting it,
i know for example about experiments on oil, and that the mass of the
oil droplets always had a common denomenator, which votes for quantitization.
Now with super microscopes (tunneling etc) we aparently can even see them.
I have no reason for direct distrust as this also involves chemistry
and doesn't appear to be a half-hearted attempt to keep SR/GR kite flying.

No, wormholes are possible solutions to the feild equations. Nothing
more.

They are not fact. No direct or indirect evidence has ever been
observed.

Can you distinguish between the 3 kinds of wormholes theorized and

It separates momentum from mass.

Since it's very easy to look up the relativistic formula
for momentum, it's pretty easy to verify that p is not
equal to mv and p can be nonzero when m is zero. So it's
pretty silly to say that falsifies GR or SR, since SR
clearly gives a formula that allows this to be.

What does that have to do with the existence of little atoms?

Yes, but the atomic theory is a hundred years older than that. You
believed it long before there were such things.

Why?

No? You say science requires proof. Isn't this science?

Two words: Rutherford experiment. Physics or chemistry?

Do you know how Rutherford "proved" there was an atomic nucleus? Do
you have any idea how indirect an experiment that was?

Do you think anyone's ever seen an atomic nucleus?

They have a number for the angle formed by the bonds in H2O.
Do you think anybody's every held up a little protractor to
measure that angle? How did they "proof" that?

God is religion. SR is insanity. Newton is science. Maxwell is halfdone
science. Particle-accelerators are magnets blasting particles despite
friction, mass increase might well be because there get particles sucked
into the stream, muons are an unrelated phenomenon (muons notice their
speed through the atmosphere and are not 'at rest'), clocks react to
different environments, different clocks in different ways, some experiments
involving clocks may be rigged by the faithfull to keep their flock
coming to them.

There is none, which is why the twin paradox works out perfectly. It is

I told you already: in order for the bar to be straight in all frames

sound in the bar would have to be infinite.

Here, a formula that allows for water to be tapped directly from
the Sun, now we all have water!

Water = 1/2 * (pipe-diameter / pip-length^2)^.5 * 1-liter

All you need to do is point your pipe at the sun. This formula
allows for water to be tapped from the Sun!

No direct evidence, one on one.

Perhaps we did with tunneling microscopes. In any event, i never said
credible hypotheses were outside the realm of science. I only always say
that SR is not a credible hypotheses because it's falsified, and i also
say it's not a scientific fact to build a theory on top because it has
not been verified.

It is. Did they build 100 years of totally weird and unwarranted
theories on top of the atom-hypotheses? Is the atom hypotheses unthinkable?
Is the atom-theory paradoxical? No, no, no. Did they claim it as fact
immediately after the idea popped up? No.

Ofcourse not. However, the idea is credible, non-paradoxical, and
more or less proof exists which is directed at the exact problem.
Muons hardly are a proof directed at 1way-1beam-multiobserver-lightspeed-
-constancy-in-a-vacuum, neither are particles in accelerators and neither
are cesium clocks in GPS satalites.

Since you subscribe to Elculdian space, this point may be lost upon
you. Wormholes are theroetical constructs that may or may not exist.
If they do, they function as a tunnel through 2 different points of
space.

You cannot outrun a photon on its own plane, but when you go around
it, you can evade the limit.

Wormholes may or may not exist, depending how accurate GTR is.

No, you are insanity.

Lets summarize what you think...

*Newton is correct and proven
*You think there is friction in vacuum
*Muons dont "know" they are going fast until they hit atmosphere.
*Clocks react to different enviroments
*Science falsifys data.

Is that list correct? If it is, i will address them in another post.

Euclid has nothing to do with our space, space is what it is because
of the world, we research it and we call that field about shapes
geometry. We study it from experiment, after enough experiment we can
do it in our heads even. Euclid has nothing to do with other then
the arrogance of thinking it is what it is because of him.

He says "yes there is FTL signalling in our theories, but we don't want
you to use it in the debate so we hope that you won't notice that you could".

>Wormholes may or may not exist, depending how accurate GTR is.

You play with the possibility, you leave it open. That means that you
can no longer ignore paradoxes which use FTL signalling because they
could be connected by wormhole.

BTW, this wormhole is good thinking: merely stage a fake debate about total
crackpottery, and get payed for doing "research". How long are you going
to keep the debate running, indefinetely so as to milk it, or will it
someday be ""settled"" after another scifi idea can be milked.

But didn't exist when relativity got adopted on faith alone.
Still, relativity is adopted on faith and brainwashing and authority
invokations alone: the evidence misses the point.

The point is: 1way-1beam-multiobserver-lightspeed-constancy-in-a-vacuum.
The second postulate, the only fact relativity adds to science, and it's
a fact that this cannot be true, it is false through absurdity.

How?
Just read the damn postulate and imagine what it means.

You don't get how a good scam works (well you do, but you pretend not to).
In order to suck money while not being noticed, you throw it at some
good cause that doesn't really exist, and then you take it. Take for
instance the two teams investigating space-curvature. Ofcourse there is
no spacecurvature, but the projects must be payed for by the taxpayer.
A simple satalite project from my home town costed 150 million euro.
Do you see the amounts we are playing with?
What if a certain satalite was designed to test curvature of space,
which doesn't exist, or wormholes. What can you do? Send up a toaster
with a few car-starting cables and a handfull of nails, make sure it
is a "really sensitive device" so it must be kept under wraps at all
times untill "the experts" install the thing. Then you fake some data
you know nobody will argue with because SR/GR are all a big lie and
everybody who knows it is in on it (except me and Spaceman and a few
others here). The magazines will rave with the great results, so the
money-donators (politicians) and university personell will not argue
with it, and all laymen will think this is "cutting edge research".

Einstein-Cartan theory operates in Riemann-Cartan spacetime, U^4,
which is a paracompact, Hausdorff, connected, C^(infinity), and
oriented 4-dimensional manifold on which are defined a local Lorentz
metric g and a linear affine connection "cap gamma," with

gamma "an element of" GL^+ (4,R)

the set of all arbitrary linear transformations on the manifold with
positive determinants and which is metric, i.e. Dg =0. From "cap
gamma" a curvature and a torsion tensor can be obtained on U^4.

1) If the torsion tensor vanishes, Riemann-Cartan spacetime becomes
the pseudo-Riemannian spacetime, V^4;

2) If the curvature tensor vanishes, it becomes Weitzenboeck
spacetime, A^4;

3) If both tensors vanish, it becomes Minkowski spacetime, M^4.

The pseudo-Riemannian spacetime, V^4 (i.e. with a signature of (-, +,
+, +)), is the one used by GR to describe gravity.

Hey, stooopid, all your boring ignorant spewing about Einstein must
now be duplicated byte for byte to piss and moan about Weitzenboeck,
too. Metric and affine theories of gravitation give the same answers,
but affine/teleparallel theories contain no spacetime curvature.

Idiot.

Euclid was the writer (or writers, thing Bourbaki here) who anthologized
a collection of theorems proved by various and sundry Greek geometers.
He lived slightly before the time of Archimedes.

The term Euclidean pertains to geometric spaces sastisfy 5 postulates.
The fifth of these postulates says -in effect- that given a line and a
point not on the line there is one and only one line parallel to the
given line. That is not quite how Euclid expressed it, but what he
postulated is equivalent to the above. [1] Geometry, historyically, is
an idealization of earth measurments used in surveying. Practical
geometry, i.e. surveying originated in Egypt (or so it is thought). The
Greeks abstracted from practical surveying surveying and the practical
rules of thumb used by the Egyptians and Babylonians to produce a
logically structure hierarchy of idealized geomtrical propositions that
could be developed by logical proof. This was an original Greek
invention and is the essence of mathematics as we know it.

It is known there exist (abstract) spaces which do not satisfy all of
Euclid's postulates. In particular there are spaces in which no parallel
lines exist (the set of great circles on the surface of a sphere for
example) and spaces where there are in infinite number of lines parallel
to a given line through a given point. It can be shown that all of the
non-Euclidean geometries are as consistent as Euclidean geometry. We
know, from experiment, that the geomretry of space time is non-Euclidean
for for small enough regions of spacetime, Euclidean geometry is an
acceptable approximation.

In point of fact, geometry is an artifact of our imagination. It is
handy because it incorporates some of the properties found in real (i.e.
physical things) and enables us to make experimentally supported
predictions. Geometry is part of the mathematical infrastructure of
physical theories, either implicitly or explicitly.

Bob Kolker

[1] Hilbert showed that Euclid assumed more postulates than he stated,
particularly those having to do with order of points on line segments,
and the congruence of figures.

Well, let me put it this way: for 15 nsec-long laser pulses, the
laser fluence threshold for fast material removal is on the order
of 10 J/cm^2. As opposed to photo-chemical reaction in UV
laser ablation of organic materials, the material removal mechanism
in metals is basically thermal, via fast melting and evaporation,
However, the term "ablation" is commonly used to distinguish
from melt ejection mechanism in long pulse drilling. In this respect,
an interesting exercise would be for you to find the source of this
very text, and how it was found by yours truly in the first place.

Corneal reshaping with an eximer laser is wholly athermal. The

Since Newton is "correct" in your mind, yes Euclid does have
relevance.

As i understand it, Euclidian space is typical "flat" space with
parallel lines and has the interior angles of a triangle add up to
180*. You disagree with curved space, and since my knowledge of
topology is limited to "curved" and "flat", i assume you mean flat.

Your assumption of "faith alone" is getting irritating, especially

You are also ignorant of the economics of putting something in orbit.

Why dont you tell us about that sattelite, since most of us probably
do not know your home town or anything about that sattelite.

Your ignorance is....sad, to say the least.

You say this as if its a fact. Got any photos? Any evidence of any
kind?

Why is it that only a few university dropouts and a retarded tire
salesman know the "seeekrit" of relativity?

Anyway, your "supporters" are also idiots. Spacetard things -4 * -4 =
-16.

Have you of any of your supporters...

Graduated from High School?

Taken and passed any Algebra-level classes?

Taken and passed any Trigonometry classes?

Taken nad passed any Calculs-level classes?

None of you can even recite parts of SR right, even with google at
your disposal. Why should we believe any of you when you cant even get
your story straight yourselves?

Geometry is what it is becaus of the world. There are no such things
in true geometry, math or physics as axioms or postulates. The world
is all we need to proof anything (anything real, so that's where your
problem is: SR is not real, so you want to get away from the real world).

This shows you where you are. You say "as i understand Euclidian space...".
This is the root of the problem.

Normal/reality geometry also has curved space: spheres, balls, cones,
saddles, everything that can be in reality. If you like you can draw
lines on these surfaces, and measure or computer proporties of them.
I think your "non-euclidian geometry" is actually just normal/reality
geometry done on a sphere's surface, and mathematicians have redefined
words like parallel to "confuse and impress".

Yes, i had 2 types of math and physics as my chosen classes and i graduated
them. I got the algebra/geometry math passed by doing a hard bonus question
on geometry. This is not relevant, because my arguments work whether i did
or didn't pass anything. The only thing is that if i didn't, i might not
have come into contact with the crackpottery of science.

Ofcourse you can. The issue is not that it is "always and everywhere from
infinity to infinity" right. The issue is that there is a discovery here
which matches all our past experience.

It is like i am talking to completely naive people who were taught Newton
before they could walk, and then thought "but i don't believe this shit"
because they had no experience, and then they set out to infect science
and to proof Newton wrong because they were insulted.

Do you believe that a vacuum is truly empty ?
No subatomic particles.
No magnetic fields.
No electrical fields.
No gravity fields.
No atoms.
No molecules

Do you think the pump in the accelerator goes out towards all these particles
and grabs then saying "what are you doing here, come with me i'll escort you

No machinery requires relativity.
Oh wait, one machine does: university delusions require certain machines

but why tell that the students, after all, it's so much fun to delude
everybody isn't it, while you're "the only smart one" who knows it.

Machines work because they are put together, and tried to make them work.
GPS satalites work because you send up a clock, measure what it does,
compensate and build your network around it. Easy and reliable way of
working, the only way that will ever work with unknown phenomena.

That is postulate-1.

I think they know they must hide postulate-2 because of it's erroneousness?

laymen to find the flaws of modern physics, the broken nail from which
the whole modern physics hangs (hangs-not).

The satalite is irrelevant, and the project is probably clean. It is
something to measure (let me get the paper...) "HIFI", Heterodyne
Instrument for Far Infrared. To measure which substances are present
in clouds of gas and dust. It will be launched in 2007 to 1.5 million
miles away from Earth with an Ariana and will run for approx. 3 years
(then the cooling liquid will have evaporated).

The point is not this project which probably is all ok (i see no theoretical
reason why it should be a scam), the point is the amount of money involved
in these kinds of projects: 150 million Euro's. This kind of money is an
attraction to certain individuals. It should be a bigger suprise to find
a corruption scheme amongst kindergarten teachers then amongst university
personell. Measuring dustclouds in no problem, but measuring "the curvature
of space" or "try to locate wormholes", if satalites are launched for these
reasons, then i would be suspicious.

Fair enough.

Guess the scientists do the experiments "right" but since they are

Can you kindly reinterpet these experiments?

Theres only two. Lets try the other one.

Excuse me? You saw an axiom and decided calculs wasnt worth your time?
I see why you didnt get too far, now.

Unlike SR/GR, i have a book onhand for this. Math through distance
is....different. Poking through the first chapter which is a review
of basic algebra, there are several assumptions made when dealing with
numbers.

What is your problem with axioms in math?

So, then a vacuum must be like low density air right ?

Something for the light to travel relative to. BTW, not merely talking
about molecules here, also about subatomic particles and fields.

So you admit there is no free-space. You know you are breaking phycisists
laws ?

We better call "phycics laws", "phycisists laws" :). That is more close
to what they are these days. Rules that govern the brainwashing routine,
and the content for the brainwashing.

Gravity is what makes clocks get off their callibration, it has nothing
to do with GR. The only thing that makes GR relevant in this is the reason
it provides for phycisists to rig their experiments, and that the acceptance
of GR proves phycisists are untrusted faithfull (or corrupt migth less
well trusting people think).

All machinery is made working by experimenting with the devices and the
principles. You phycisists are merely piggy-backing SR/GR on space
influences on the clocks (lower gavity for instance) and drag in
accelerators (and call that relativistic addition of velocities). And
you found a single particle muon which behaviour you could exploit. That
is the length of your evidence for the worst **** this century!

Axioms are not the reason for math to be what it is.
Did you know that a+b=b+a is an axiom?
It is not true because of axiom but because of experiment.
Same for geometry, same for the rest of the silly axioms, same for
physics.

You don't need no axioms (unless you are in a semi-religious scam).

You have dog shit between your ears.
Whether a+b = b+a depends on the set that contains
a and b and on the definition of "+".

Perhaps you could have a try in sci.math.
Or perhaps better, in sci.math.research.
Perhaps you can be balanced and interesting enough.
Perhaps you can include a diagram in your post.
Perhaps you can tell them about your formula for air
resistance: F = m*a.
Perhaps you can explain the Lorentz transformation in English.
Perhaps you can explain about the dimension of gamma.
Perhaps you can tell them that every mathematician is mentally ill,
or a lying son of a bitch.
Perhaps you can tell them that you are planning to repeat your
view until it becomes right by the sheer force of repetition.
Perhaps you can tell them that your view is totally backed by
James Driscoll The Lesser.
Perhaps you can draw their attention to the number of references
you have on

Or perhaps not.

As i said, i have my calculus book on hand for this. What exactly is
"wrong" with it. What axiom bothers you? If it exists i can find it
and you can explain how you "sucessfully" debunked SR, GTR, QM, and
any theory of math or science that uses postulates or axioms.

Thanks. It's no surprise, but it does verify that JosX suffers from the

Here's the syndrome in a nutshell: The student can't pass the course, the
source of the problem is either internal (a fault of the student) or
external (a fault of something other than the student). JosX chooses the
latter, choosing the subject matter itself, along with everyone who claims
to understand it or teach it, as the external agent responsible for his
failures.

Here's my prediction: At the college he attended he had a reputation for
criticizing, in some detail, every aspect of the professors he could think
of, including appearance. He has similar academic problems with language
skills courses (evident from the way he writes) and blames those problems
on something external to himself as well. He is either on mood-altering
medication now, or will need to be at some point in his life. Otherwise,
his dysfunction will continue to interfere with his ability to have
friends, a family life, and a job.

The Community Colleges Have to put up with this type of person to some
extent.
The Faculty is usually a mixed bag of political feather-bedders and persons
of integrity with standards.
( same as Uni??)
As one example, I had to put up with guys in Excel classes who really
couldn't deal with the concept of widening a column if you saw stars.
One of them in particular was a wet-brained drunk whose mother had to point
him down the hall.
Amazingly, he had received C's and B's from previous instructors who said,
when I asked them "What th' Hay-hull??" said, well he's a nice guy and
sometimes you gotta give folks a break.
Joe had serious intention of getting a job as a Accountant .
He presented as his "Project" a HAND-Written calculation of his GPA ( in
Excel" class, yet,) and was pissed off when I told him he should drop the
course.
Anyway, when JosX types show up at the Dept Chair to complain about "Calcluz
be a lye" stuff, the get the
"Hmm.. Interesting!! treatment , and then are given the bureaucratic
runaround. In fairness , who has time to take this seriously??
At one instance, I interviewed a prospective student for Biochemistry.
This person had a DEGREE from a State College in "Nutrition"

Her answers to some questions.

Q. what is the Formula for Sodium

Question

A. "C"

Scary thing is that she probably re-took General Chem and got another "C"
with no increase in knowledge.

Someone has to cut the slack, but it is usually after a student becomes
frustrated and disruptive, usually because of actually believing that
standards are secondary to having good feelings about your politically
correct ecological views.

Good luck JoeX but stay the hell away from people who really care about

And they fail

We're already winning

The problem with math is real, and it is not my statement. For
example, read:

Mathematics - The loss of certainty, Morris Kline, Oxford University
Press 1980.

According to the cover of the book, Dr. Kline was the late Professor
Emeritus of Mathematics, the Courant Institute of Mathematical
Sciences, University of New York.

The problems with the axioms of Calculus is covered in the Chapter
"The Illogical Development: The Morass of Analysis" pp 127-152.
Basically the concept of differentials (e.g., dx) is of great suspect,
and no one has been able to make Calculus rigorous.

I'm not sure how available this book is. I found one copy of it at a
Borders bookstore in St Paul, MN.

I have the book. The chapter you point out discusses the shaky foundations
upon which the calculus was initially developed. But things worked, so
mathematicians swept some issues under the rug, for a while. Things changed
in the 19th century.

I remember reading the book on calculus by Richard Currant, many years
ago. Still remember the paragraph on 'shaky foundations of calculus'
and that as a matter of fact it was a tremendous luck for the whole
history of mathematical development that - as you've said '
mathematicians swept some issues under the rug', for a while of
course.

I also remember reading something like 'why the ancient Greeks haven't
developed the calculus?' the answer is that their way of thinking was
mostly axiomatic and systematic type, very logical, very methodical,
very precise. Calculus on the other hand was developed primarily as a
result from 'pressure from the real world', like the necessity to
calculate the volumes'.
