Sorry,

One can get lost when it comes to perspectives and observation, the end
fact they MUST ACCELERATE (for their distance increases considerably
with time) to compare each others values and by then the clocks would
have been re-modified????

Both there is still one STRANGE question...Both "believe" the other has
AGED LESS...In a way could this mean time is but a mirage?

1. I had 2 pairs a twins on Earth.

2. One pair left Earth at 1/3c so say after 1 month, they were say 1
year younger than the Earth pair.

3. Then one brother of each pair flies at 2/3c to each immigrate on the
opposit's platform.

4. Now they remain this way at 1/3c for 10 years (making the period in
#1 more of an irrelevant factor since this period is much longer).

So from the laws of symmetry (and Inertial Reference Frames) both new
non-twin-brother pairs must be younger?
