2. can you send me the original paper, I would highly appreciate it.

I'll have to hunt for it. It's a paper comparing ISR (collider)
rapidity distributions with those at FNAL (fixed target), if I
remember right. I think I remember seeing some references in Don
Perkins' book on particle physics, too.

Would be nice to have a look at it, I bet that Tom would like to see
it as well.

Tom and I have talked about it. He doesn't view as direct enough a
test to put it into the FAQ. I disagree, but it's not my FAQ. I
respect Tom a ton, but I don't always go to him as the authority on
relativity either.

Interesting,

I provided Tom with a few papers as well and he rejected them. I
agreed with him. Why did he reject the one we are talking about? What
was his exact answer?

Oh, frankly, I don't recall the exact words and am not in the spirit
to look up the transcript. You could ask him.
