Re: More on Lorenz contraction

The Lorenz transform of an E field with no B field can result in a
nonzero B field. The E and B fields together make a rank 2 tensor and
all of E&M is a consequence of the transformations of that tensor into
the frames of different observers.

This is trivially true and very well known, hardly some new
"discovery". It also seems to be all that you're trying to say.

Not quite. Einstein built Maxwell's equations into relativity, it
was part of what led to it (the postulates of SR were chosen to keep
Maxwell's equations valid in all frames). Didn't you know that?


The lorenz contraction predicts a force on a charged body near a
current carrying conducter when it is static relative to the wire.

As I said. Just transform the E field of the electrons from their
rest frame to the frame of an observer stationary relative to the
wire, and voila, there's the B field. Second semester freshman year in a
standard physics curriculum (admittedly they do it without introducing
rank 2 tensors when the class is for freshmen...)

The Soviet Union was better

How would you know? You've had your memory destroyed, you said so in
an earlier post.


The slaves of the West will never rebel, they are all detected and
lobotomised

No, that's _you_ who was lobotomized, not the "slaves of the
west". You already told us about it. Try to keep straight who you're
talking about here, please.

In Russia we all ate ...

Again, how would you know? You had your frontal lobes removed and
your memory was destroyed, remember? You said so. So whatever you
_think_ you remember about the USSR is just static, just noise on the
channel.
