It is only to be expected. Challenging a person's belief system isn't going
to be taken calmly, and having a low intelligence they react emotionally and
childishly. As I indicated to Gisse, if he thinks anyone is impressed by his
insults then I'll insult him to impress him in return. Sometimes you have
to come down to their level it that is all they can understand.

Math is a useful tool, just like a 1200W circular saw. If you don't use it
properly, you can cut your fingers off. DHRs are vandals, hell bent on
destroying physics and astronomy without reason.

Ah, but could you fairly take away a gold medal she'd won in freestyle
swimming as well, had she done so?
Certainly a time fault is not going to be deliberate on her part. However,
had she deliberately cheated, that would be a different matter.
The photo-electric effect is unrelated to relativity.
Last week, a convicted rapist won £7,000,000 in the national lottery.
Many people think that should go to his victim, and morally they may
be correct. However, the law states that he must serve his time, and
that he is entitled to his winnings.
That leaves it up to the victim to sue for compensation, as far as I can
see, and a jury to award damages.
In the case of Einstein v Rest of the World, he's dead, so perhaps his
estate should be handed over to be shared proportionally among charities.
That leaves his heirs as victims... not really fair, is it, to visit the
sins of the father on the offspring. How would you feel if he was your
daddy?
Better that they cut his brain up for research. Oh, they did... They can
have mine, too, when I'm done with it.

Sure, but how did the cloud form in the first place? That's the seed that is
missing. Nature recycles plants and animals, and we understand (well,
loosely) how it happens. A tree produces a seed, the seed gets buried by a
squirrel, a fox catches the squirrel, no other squirrel knows where the seed
is, the seed grows and becomes a tree, the older tree dies and its nutrients
are broken down by insects and fungi, returning to the ground, the young
tree matures, is visited by insects and produces a seed, the cycle repeats.
Are stars the seed and the cloud the tree, or is it the other way around?

| Recycling is the one!!!!! EMR particles (or smaller) -> hydrogen ->

Can't happen, sorry. Dinky is a real idiot anyway. He just told Ghost that
if x = 0, x' = -vt' , because Einstein defined x' = x-vt.
That leaves t = t'.
