You and Eric just can't stand not to have the last word, I guess.
Just saying that someone is wrong or that a statement does not take
into consideration the history of physics doesn't provide anyone
anything to start, end or continue a debate.

Science is not an equal opportunity endeavor. Since you are wrong,
there is no debate apart from the reasons why, after years of posting
to this newsgroup, you still have less understanding of relativity than
the average physics student would be expected to grasp in the first
one-hour lecture.


Bilge, the debatable issue with you is whether your geometry argument
fails in Euclidean space. I have provided a quote which substantiates
that time is absolute in Euclidean space, therefore your argument that
physical processes are controlled by geometry fails if nature is
Euclidean. Unless you can provide a reason for saying "wrong," then
regardless of what you say, my argument holds.

Your opinion on the merits of your argument is irrelevant. Your argument
is not even coherent and I am under no obligation to provide you or anyone
else with a reason for anything. If you want to want to pay me a couple
hundred dollars an hour to have me repeat the reasons I have already given
you, I'll send those reasons to you in ps or pdf format after the check
clears. Perhaps if you pay for an answer, you will pay more attention to
it.
