Re: time dilation



thanks, henry. i am new in this newsgroup. i have also been a relativity
enthusiast. the reason i join this newsgroup is to discuss ideas about
relativity, physics, and speculate on anything that might be relevant to
physics. if i am wrong, it would be nice to receive constructive criticism
from someone who really knows in order to understand. i will try to do the
same. there is a well organized physics forum in
http://www.physicsforums.com/
