No kidding. Your standard seems to be to have some courtesy, have some sympathy and some taste, regardless of what kind of crackpot or physicist-basher you are dealing with. If that works for you, okay. But what's not puzzling me is the nature of the game being played by pseudo-courteous poseurs such as the kook who started this thread, and I show no pretense by saying so.

So what do *you* think about the physics in this thread, jem? I posted a rather well-known fact about c in response to the first post, and I gave a relevant and intreresting reference in a reply to the first post of Harald Van Lintel, who now asserts that the paper I referenced is not good. Other participants have pointed out different flaws in the thinking and argumentation of the original poster. Do you have an opinion about the physics, jem?

Feeling pangs of conscience, shuba? At any rate, your caricature of my comment bears little resemblance to it. The message wasn't a pollyannaish "let's all try to get along", but simply that one shouldn't walk away from a *civil* debate when one's opponent is mid-sentence.
