1) Hey stooopid - only works for inertial frames.
2) Hey stooopid - how is "distance" measured? Time? By whom? A
relativistic universe has four distinct distances: luminosity (inverse
square), angular diameter, parallax, and proper motion. No two of
them need agree to maintain consistency. Clocks can only be
synchronized by being local.
3) Hey stooopid -

Hafele-Keating Experiment
4) Hey stooopid - Annalen der Physik 4, XVII, pp. 891-921 (1905)
5) Hey stooopid - Science 307(5711) 865pp (2005)
6) Hey stooopid - the clock that travels furthest through space
travels least through time, and all that is completely observer
dependent. Distance and time are - HEY STOOOPID - relative.
