| Relativity has a lot to say about the present moment. See:

The derivation of the cuckoo transformations is given in
http://www.fourmilab.ch/etexts/einstein/specrel/www/
which is explained at
http://www.androcles01.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Smart/Smart.htm
Notice the claim:
"Given that the equations are linear", which they are not, the lying
garbage at
http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Special_Relativity:_Mathematical_Appendix#Mathematics_of_the_Lorentz_Transformation_Equationsis NOT Einstein's SR.Androcles.
The equations are linear, I assume you mean that linear equations are
inappropriate. In this derivation the assumption is that space is
homogenous and isotropic, ie: it is assumed that space has a form that
can be described by the linear equations (Special Relativity). There
are no lies, the assumption is stated, obviously the equations would
need modifying if space were curved.
