These people claim to spread reason and objective knowledge, but they
spread lies and mindcrap. They have had their chance to get it right,
and admit their error, to mend their ways. Force is now warranted, they
have started this by forcing lies on the people, they have gotten their
honest chance, from now on physicists are officially the enemy of humanity
and civilization.
Perhaps these bombings will shake them up from their mindcrap rehursals.
Probably not, but it will prevent them from spreading their mindcrap

Yes that also means you senseless mindless idiot students who accept
everything without evidence and accept everything on authority: you are

You think grad students aren't people?
The physics department of the University of Wisconsin was
bombed late one night in the 60s, killing a postdoc, wounding
three grad students, and putting the bombers on the FBI
most-wanted list.
Do not joke about bombs to Americans. You will find yourself
moving from annoying twit to object of hate very quickly.

Why do you think i go this far.
You are fast becoming my object of hate.
"I attach a reference point to a propagating lightfront"
Then i ask: what is the speed of light relative to this reference
point in the direction to which the lightfront is propagating.
-> "c" is the answer from the SRians, as if nothing is amiss.
I am sorry but this was too much for me to not get angry.
BTW, i have been requested many times to hang myself or to take
an overdose by your kind, considder it a returning of the favor.

The answer "c" is wrong.
The answer should be that a propagating lightfront cannot be

"Late arrival at the party", indeed.
This country started with _your_ bombs,
because we dared object to British
tyranny. We've tasted adequate bombs
since then (some of them our own; ever
heard of our Civil War?).
Now, you've got a bunch of radical
Muslim immigrants who want to make
Britain a Muslim Theocracy. What will
you do when they bomb your Queen, Big
Ben, and something important like the
Monty Python archives?
You'll ask for _us_ to come rescue you

It is forbidden to attach a reference FRAME to a lightfront,
a reference FRAME from which measurements are made,
a reference FRAME that attaches coordinates to events,
a reference FRAME in which it is meaningful to talk about
distances and times, and thus of speeds, and thus of speed
of light.
So when you say:
| "I attach a reference point to a propagating lightfront",
then people should tell you that you can go ahead doing
that, but that SR does not tell *anything* about what you
might measure or see or calculate when you are *on*
that reference point. You cannot be *on* it because
you cannot reach the speed of light. So they should tell
you that your question
| What is the speed of light relative to this reference point
| in the direction to which the lightfront is propagating?
is meaningless and cannot be answered by SR.
If they answer "c" to this question, as if nothing is amiss,
then either
- they don't know what they are talking about, or
- they have not understood the question.
If you *would* understand SR, then either
- you would not have asked the question, or
- you would ask it as a trolling
Since you *did* ask the question, this means that either
- you don't know the very basics of SR
- you are trolling
Not knowing the very basics of something is nothing to
be ashamed of. Puking about it in 85 buckets at a time
is something to be ashamed of.

I think you and Patrick understand SR best, because you realize how
wrong it is (how anti objective knowledge), and that you must work
for it (kindof working for the devil in a sense, virtually speaking
the devil gave your kind relativity to boost your way to the top of
fame and fortune, now you must work for it and "evil" laughs because
it gets minds destroyed from good people around the globe, and corruption
reigns in physics while the good people can't get a foothold since there
is no rational basis to relativity).

What is wrong with your twisted brain?
Is it brainwashed perchance?
I observe such so I must accept it as fact!
It's a democracy and they are allowed to want to make Britain a Muslim
theocracy. They can even campaign and demonstrate for it if they want to.
There are also Muslims in Europe who hate the United States. I'm sure the
security services try to keep them under surveillance. If they actually do
anything other than demonstrating and it can be proven, they will be tried
and thrown in jail (though the French might quietly dispose of the problem
in a different way).
We've had terrorist bombings in this country for most of my life. (I've had
my local post-office firebombed by the Real IRA twice so far this year.)
Should we ask for help from a country whose attitude to our terrorist
problem has been to fund it? We have. But when we asked you to stop the
funding of the IRA by US citizens you refused. When we asked you not to
invite Gerry Adams over during a critical part of the negotiations, you did
it anyway. And if we did ask for your help with any "Muslim terrorism", why
should you have a problem with it? You ask for our help and we give it
gladly. (And we don't wait several years before supporting you, either.)
Our hearts go out to the families of those who died last year.
In the last hundred years when America and Britain fought together they won.
When America fought without us, it suffered its most traumatic defeat. For
all Richard Tobin's insensitivity, it is unwise for us to bicker.
We are both supposed to be allies. Our geopolitical interests are broadly
the same. For pity's sake let's act like it.
Apologies for being totally off topic.
Jon
And how do you assure there are no people? By bombing at
night. Thus, I said "his belief that physics departments
are empty at night". Why are simple sentences so hard for
you to read? Do you think his original post assumed something
different about night time and building occupancy?
He said this:
> > For any terrorists: please bomb university-physics departments at night
> >(don't kill people plz).
Yes, he is expressing a wish not to kill people.
He is also expressing belief that if you blow up a
physics department at night you won't kill people.
> What is wrong with your twisted brain?
That when you say "bomb physics departments" you are
talking about killing people, even if you think there
aren't people in the building at night.
It was also the belief of the U. of Wisconsin bombers
that by blowing up the building late at night they
would not kill any people.
Just as with physics, thinking something is so does not
make it so.

I am saying that relativity is falsifiable. It makes very precise

If you really want to get your money's worth, and the dictionary also
has english->dutch, I suggest you also look up the difference between
"to prove" and "to proof".
If it was falsifiable, it would not dissalow certain thought's or
hypotheses. It now dissalows solids, speeds in excess of c, and even
the most redicilous of all: it forbids certain reference points to
be chosen in the entirety of physics and science. Sorry, but that is
too much to ask, where in fact a theory should and cannot defend itself
from falsification by outlawing the rationale that leads to it. That
means you are making your theory a religion.
Tell me how can one falsify relativity in theory, by showing contradiction
or unreasonability. Can't be done eh? "relativity is true by postulate,
and any idea that can threaten it we outlaw".

Relativity is a philosopher-tripe, we cannot yet technologically measure
lightspeed from multiple reference points at the same time/same lightbeam.
If we could your theory would be disproven immediately.
Tell me Marco: "jan killed the cat, the cat lives in newyork, jan cannot
be in two places at once, neither can the cat, jan was in wisconsin, jan
didn't leave wisconsin for a week, in that week the cat was killed, the
cat never left new york, apples eventually rot when unatended", does this
"murder-solving" theory contain a contradiction?
What if i /postulated/ that jan had killed the cat, would the theory still
be falsifyable by using elements from the theory or the theory as a whole?

STR has no mathematical contradictions. If it did, ALL theories would be
caput. Why? STR mathematically is just real functions + Lorentz transform.
So far no experiment has refuted STR. Is it possible for STR to be at
odds with an experiment? Yes.
Bob Kolker
Boyle's law is a curve fitting, what would i have against that. Nothing.
Wrong analogy. But if Boyle's law said anything about -10 Kelvin, but
hasn't any data about it, then one might disprove this law (discredit it)
using a thought experiment.
Mind you that relativity is build upon thought-experiments.

Every measurement taken of light in free space yields the same result
(within instrumental error bars), to wit c. The velocity of particles in
an acclerator approach c assymptotically as the voltage on the
accelerator is increased. And so on, and so on. Hundreds of thousands of
tests yield the same result.

Going through the postings, I note that josX has been told more than once
that grad students and postdocs will be in the physics departments at that
time that he is advocating. So one can only conclude that Jos Boersema
considers the premeditated and cold-blooded murder of grad students and
postdocs a "not terribly evil act". It would appear that Jos Boersema
approves of cold-blooded and unprovoked murder.

So too was Newtonian physics. At least there are
two fundamental ones. The thought experiment of
eternal "unforced" motion of a free body in uniform
rectilinear motion to get the Galilean Principle
of Inertia. The second was Newton's Pail thought
experiment, from which he concluded that there
exists an absolute acceleration space to give centrifugal
force a legitimate meaning to him. Neither thought
experiment leads to laws derived from curve-fitting.
But you don't know these things because the
Establishment never thought it important for you
to learn them. It taught you that curve-fitting was a
legitimate way to do science, and you then made
the hasty generalization that science must be ALL
curve fitting, but it isn't. The Establishment should
have also taught you that there are many other
ways to set down equations and formulate research
programs than by curve fitting. But for you now it's
too late to teach you new tricks. Don't learn this
in the formative years and it's too late, babe. A
lesson for what to teach in science classes.
You can teach a person science for 30 years,
and that will not necessarily disabuse him or

Turn around your axis -> notice how the world doesn't fall apart except you.
So turning is really /you/ turning, not your feet accelerating the
universe into a spin (yes people, this is the level of these guys).
Start running, or sit in a high speed car -> notice that the world
isn't falling over but /you/ are the one being pushed back.

Yup, don't get kids in the formative years and they are lost for the

The only reason science is allowed to exist is because it searches
for the TRUTH, which is of general interest since we all LIVE in it.

No, stupidity and willful ignorance will outlast everything. You've
achieved your goal. You've demonstrated your foolishness to the nth degree.
How you derive satisfaction from that is beyond me. But, by all means, you
should be very proud that you've achieved perfection. You are a perfect
idiot.

I think sci.physics is not a very good place to say that.
Evidence is all what seperates fantasy from objective knowledge, the

Go play soccer, there you will find the basis for physics. The

They have been given to us: experience.

You have no idea what falsifiable means. One more time: Falsifiable
means "makes a testable prediction".

You have misunderstood the discussion about reference frames
completely. But at any rate, all of these are testable
predictions. If you actually manage to make an solid so
rigid that sound speed > c, or find any other way of propagating
information faster than c EXPERIMENTALLY then you will have
found an experiment that violates relativity. At that point
relativity will be known to be wrong.
The fact that there are experimental results that would
prove relativity wrong makes relativity falsifiable.
So far, SO FAR, all the experiments have gone the other
way, being consistent with relativity and inconsistent
with predictions made by other theories. What may happen
in the future is unknown. That's the nature of science.
Now would be the time to say "I have the experiment and here
it is: I know relativity is wrong."
That's not an experiment.

So is relativity, and if fits the curve perfectly.
For a while now I have asked you to show us such a contradiction. Yet so
far you have not done that. The fact that the only answers you ever come up
with are "mutual length contraction" and "mutual time dilation" shows
that you do not understand relativity and its consequences.

Relativity does not say that about a ball or any other "thing", so what's
your point? If your point was to demonstrate your own ignorance then you
succeeded brilliantly again. Was that what you were trying to do?
Which evidence did you have for your TV being a mind control device?
(prediction: Jos will ignore the question)
What was the evidence when you learned that your TV is a mind control device?
Falsifiable means: can be falsified.

And you know this won't happen because
a) physics is bottled up
b) it will be a long wait before we can measure multiobservationally
lightspeed
c) if that ever happens you or some other SRists might be behind the wheel.
There is no science in physics anymore on it's main themes: SR/GR/QM,
it's all pseudoreligion and PR stunts, not to mention big bisnis (research
grants and all that, and books ofcourse, attention too).
>The fact that there are experimental results that would

All it takes is one contradiction, but you are already burried so deep
in contradictions that you forgot the meaning of it and thought you could
simply outlaw them all one by one.

I have: observe a soccer ball, watch where it's speed depends upon
relative to you.
>That's not an experiment.
"in 3,000 people will fly on superluminal brooms using brainpower"
can also not be disproved until the year 3,000, and you can't show
experimental evidence against it. So disproof it according to your
own rationale: show counter evidence or disprove it using it.

From which data was c'=c fitted ?

These are direct contradictions because relativity is not about visual
illusions, so SR provides different realities for each frame of reference.
And there pop up new contradictions all the time when we debate.

Relativity *does* say this about a ball, you don't know the theory or
you try to prevent it from being exposed without the fuzzbabble sauce.

Proof it.
The data that photons emitted on opposite sides of a fast-moving particle
still move at c.

Please cite where relativity says that about a ball. You can't. You're a liar.

Relativity makes many predictions about many experimental tests.

Contrary to your worldview, anybody who actually achieved
superluminal velocities or communications would be instantly
famous and on the short list for a Nobel Prize.
What would be the payoff in suppressing a result which would
earn one fame, fortune, and a Nobel?
- Randy
On the contrary, I've acheived superluminal speeds of soccer balls with a
device I built in my garage, powered by an old lawn mower engine. But a
group of thugs from MIT came and beat me silly with scintillator paddles
and BNC cables, took my apparatus, and threatened to stuff a californium
source up my butt if I continued my research.

A frame of reference is an artifact for giving names to events. The
names consist of 3 spatial co-ordinates (wrt to the f.o.r.) and a time
value read at the event on a clock esyched in the f.o.r.
The event lives independent of any f.o.r. A f.o.r. is only a way of
identifying events. There is only one reality.
You do not even comprehend what a frame of reference is.
Take your meds. You are raving again.
