Has Andersen offered so much as one reference in support of his
ranting? Of course not.
God created the heaven and the Earth in 6 days, I've got a book that
says so.

Andersen convince me? The same Andersen that claims

"That is, we can reverse the directions of the frames
which is the same as interchanging the frames,
which - as I have told you a LOT of times,
OBVIOUSLY will lead to the transform:
t = (tau-xi*v/c^2)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
x = (xi - v*tau)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
or:
tau = (t+xv/c^2)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
xi = (x + vt)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)" -Paul B. Andersen

yet still believes

tau = (t-xv/c^2)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
xi = (x - vt)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)

and cannot see a contradition?

That convincing Andersen?

ROFLMAO!!

How gullible can you be?

LOL!

What's the baseline of the triangle at

http://scienceworld.wolfram.com/astronomy/Parsec.html

for
1) Cepheus constellation.

2) Leo constellation.

Hint: The Earth's orbit is elliptical, ratio of major axis to minor axis

Parallax at 300 parsecs !!
Too funny, Ghost.

Close enough for government work.
Who's protractor are you using to measure plus or minus
0.0000000005 degrees?

What's a degree, anyway? It wouldn't be the distance the Earth
moves in a day, would it?
Think think ... 360 degrees/circle ..... 365 days a year?

day = 24 hours
hour = 60 minutes
minute = 60 seconds.

86400 seconds a day?

Of course, you can use the cosine of the angle to get the distance
moved across the orbit...

And you think I don't understand parallax, huh?

You don't realize just what a phuckwit you are, or just what a
phuckwit Andersen is. Phuckwits never do.

[snip crap]
Phuckwit.

Androcles.
