In other words, you have a burning desire to validate his reasons
for posting by enabling him for the umteenth time. Good work.

Liar Uncle Bonehead Green Ph. D. physics 1956 has never read Einstein's
paper,
"ON THE ELECTRODYNAMICS OF MOVING BODIES",
yet makes the following lying pronouncements:
1) " Relative speed, in short, is the speed of one object with respect to a
frame of reference in which the other object is at rest. "
2) " Einstein's 2nd postulate of SR says that the speed of light is c in
every inertial frame."
1) is a direct contradiction of Einstein's first postulate:
"Examples of this sort, together with the unsuccessful attempts to discover
any motion of the earth relatively to the ``light medium,'' suggest that the
phenomena of electrodynamics as well as of mechanics possess no properties
corresponding to the idea of absolute rest. "
As Einstein himself said:
"Prominent theoretical physicists were therefore more inclined to reject the
principle of relativity, in spite of the fact that no empirical data had
been found which were contradictory to this principle."
Ref:
2) isn't remotely close to Einstein's postulate: "light is always
propagated in empty space with a definite velocity c which is independent of
the state of motion of the emitting body."
Wackypedia states
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postulates_of_special_relativity#Postulates_of_special_relativity
1. First postulate (principle of relativity)
The laws by which the states of physical systems undergo change are not
affected, whether these changes of state be referred to the one or the other
of two systems of coordinates in uniform translatory motion.
2. Second postulate (invariance of c)
Light is always propagated in empty space with a definite velocity c that
is independent of the state of motion of the emitting body.
Clearly Liar Uncle Bonehead Green Ph. D. physics 1956 has not done so much
as to research wackypedia,
yet accuses others of not understanding his own special theory of closing
speeds (as if anybody would be interested in what the kook has to say).
This brings grave doubt on the educational qualifications the troll claims
for himself.
He does no research, he rejects the 1st postulate and he is certainly not
prominent.
He may be a theoretical physicist (in theory), but physicist he is not and
educator he is not.
Liar he definitely is.
As for troll, wackypedia states
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_troll
"An Internet troll, or simply troll in Internet slang, is someone who posts
controversial, inflammatory, irrelevant or off-topic messages in an online
community"
which fits Liar Uncle Bonehead Green Ph. D. physics 1956 perfectly.
His claims concerning Einstein's postulates are controversial,
being a lie they are inflammatory,
he makes irrelevant remarks about "closing speed" persistently
and he claims to write for the lurkers, obviously expecting to
find an audience of gullible fools whose intelligence he can insult.
Students should read Einstein's paper and not make up their own
versions of what they think is relativity.
And that is how we know liar Uncle Bonehead Green Ph. D. physics 1956 is a
troll!
