Re: The true crackpots

I presume that you recognize that the Fermilab experiments couldn't
prove "length contraction". Indeed,

"In a tevatron, those collisions occur of course head-on.
Or, according to SR, physical bodies set in motion only shorten in the
direction of their motion, meaning that a proton colliding head-on
with an anti-proton will not observe "length contraction" of the
anti-proton."

Now you are referring to HERA papers. Please give me a *specific*
reference where such contraction has been demonstrated. I am pretty
well convinced that there are none, unless in your imagination, like
with Fermilab :-)
