I would really like to see Eric admit that t'=t in the Galillean
transformation equations,

Well DERR ... we all known (those of us who acutally understand physics)
that t' = t in Galillean equations. �We also know that you cannot have
something with the same meaured speed in every frame of reference when
galillean transforms are used. It is simply impossible because you end up
with self-contradictory results.

[snip more nonsense from rbwinn, who knows not what he says]

Well, you certainly can. That is what the Galilean transformation
equations show. A clock in S' will show the same speed for light as a
clock in S. The clock in S' is represented by n', and x', the
distance a photon travels in S', is equal to cn'. x, the distance a
photon travels in x, is equal to ct. So show what you believe to be
the contradiction.
