Bryan, read carefully... (keep your lips at rest for a moment so you can
understand this simple sophomore problem).

The 2.5 years in Kat's rest frame is EXACTLY EQUAL to a 2.5 year period
in my rest frame.

Forget about frames. They seem to confuse you.
Think (and talk) about clocks and how they are used to
measure the duration of some process.
For her trip, Kat measures 2.5 years on her clock.
For that same trip, you measure 5.0 years on your clock.
I don't see what is "exactly equal" about 2.5 and 5.0.


According to Earthling Vdm , Kat travels during
5 years, but will measure 5 * sqrt(1-0.866^2) =~ 2.5 years
on her clock.

But Kat considers herself at rest, the Earth moving at
0.866 c wrt to her.
After 5 years of her time (Kat is still alive, she
took a new drug), she claims that Dirk Vdm measured
only 2.5 years on his clock.

According to SR, both Kat and Dirk are right.

Again, in my rest frame, the distance to AC is 4 lightyears.  Thus Kat
has travelled faster than light, as she has been from earth to AC in
2.5 years in EARTH TIME.

amen.

When you stumble upon something you don't understand,
it usually is a safer trategy to ask for help, than to cry for
attention.
