Re: Michelson-Morley: Much ado about nil

A single experiment never proves anything. I don't have to read the
paper because I know that relativity has been tested by a large number
of independent experiments which approach it from a multitude of
directions. These other experiments covered many of the alternative
ways to view the Michelson-Morely experiment, as well as confiming the
original null result. Focusing on one result as though it were the
end-all and be-all of a theory is very bad science.

It claims that the Michelson-Morley experiment doesn't really prove
that there is no absolute continuum. Any comments about it? It seems to
me to be very surprising. His argument is not very complicated; I'd
like to hear the opinions of the experts on this.

Thank you,
