In a dictation with lots of background noise, under surgical findings
(yep, same doc, again dictating on a train), he's talking about the
location of a mass in the pancreas:
"There was a discrete, roughly 3-cm mass in the head of the pancreas
which extended to the uncinate and posterior to the superior mesenteric
vein and artery. This was encroaching on the superior mesenteric vein
just inferior to the (s/l osmos) with the splenic vein."
Part of the word may be clipped, but there's train noise and a banging
in the background, and it's hard to tell. This is probably something I
should know, but it's frustrating me to death!!
Re: relativity? paradox? ... I am the observer and I have a mass. ... I stand still but I am moving at a high velocity because I am on Earth which is moving at high speed around it's orbit. ... Another way of thinking about this could be if I had a train moving forward at 100km/h on Earth, on it there was a smaller train travelling at 100km/h, on this smaller train was another smaller train travelling at 100km/h, how many trains upon would we need to travel at the speed of light? ... Any object can make virtually any motion you like by specifying the appropriate coordinate system which is one reason relativity concerns itself with quantities that are the same regardless of coordinate system - that is the importance of the principle of general covariance - nature should not depend on the coordinate system chosen. ...
