You want to play with the big boys and you don't even understand the
math that you're trying to use.

A few time ago, He pretended to review a research topic about geodesics
in spf, but was rapidly noticed he did not know how to differentiate
T_ab!

He never learn the lesson.

Selective memory or lying? I cannot tell.

You are *so clever* that pretend to lye about a mistake from you, which
is stored on-line!

Because unlike you, I do not delete embarrassing posts. The effect of
making a mistake is lessened when you can hide it.

Plus I hesitate to imagine how shrill you would become if the
offending posts got nuked without comment.


Your above link (I did *not* check your tensor indices) is the reply you
wrote *after* I said you that you were deriving the tensor in a *wrong*
way

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.physics.relativity/msg/b40f637f3c1...

Since you aren't going to let this go, I'll just go to the time
stamps.

Do you have a different concept of "after" in your universe?

You provided the exact form on 22 May 2008 14:12:08 CST, _my_ post
with the exact form is dated 22 May 2008 07:23:20 PDT. Granted I may
be sitting in Anchorage's airport with like 1 cumulative hour of sleep
in the last 36 hours, but I'm almost completely sure that 7 am comes
before 12 pm. It doesn't matter what the differential between CST and
PDT is - it ain't 7 hours.


You can see the text in my message being quoted in the first link you
introduced above :-)

And it was an obvious mistake which I should not have made. But I did,
and I corrected it.

You didn't provide the correction - you just said it was wrong. Try
not to be too much of a credit hog.


I was speaking about spf. This was the history on spf.

First I noticed you were deriving wrong T_ab

In your usual arrogant and ill-informed attitude you replied

Hey now - I wouldn't be me if I suddenly became reserved and
triplechecked everything I say.

I find damage control is easier, and it acts as a reeeeeal good litmus
test for the character of people I'm arguing against. If they keep
whining about a mistake I made long after I admitted it was a mistake,
it is a pretty good sign they are a moron.

I like your claim

(\blockquote
 Since I am so clearly wrong in your eye, I'd appreciate you writing
 the _proper_ expression for taking the divergence of a rank two
 tensor.
)

I explained to you how to do that

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.physics.foundations/
msg/8ac5d4ef041f1f8a

After I corrected it myself.


and also explained to you why the number of Christoffels is *two* for
T_ab instead one how you *incorrectly* believed.

Again - after I corrected it myself.

That really should have been something I caught on my own. But hey -
it doesn't weigh down on me terribly much because I don't let little
things like that rule over me.


As already remarked this kind of basic stuff would be explained by your
teacher *not by me*.

Self-taught, champ. Coming with that territory is the land of gaps in
education, surrounded by the waters of "I'll deal with it later".


But the more surprising point is that you do not show the more simple
sign of gratitude when your mistakes are corrected and you learn some
physics!

Gratitude is reserved for either people I respect or for exercises
that aren't sniping matches. You aren't interested in teaching, you
just want to pick up on anything I do wrong and rub it in my face over
and over. It is transparent, and even more pathetic.


As a bonus remember also you did not know dimensional analysis

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.physics.relativity/msg/6fe7633a0e8...

Apply the comment you wrote to yourself.

I do not see you hanging on every mistake Albertito makes, and by god
he makes a _LOT_ of them. In fact, I never see you correct or even
comment on even one of his many mistakes that would have you try to
roast me over an open flame.
