No I am not.
I am stating relations that fit just fine.

Please show (mathematically) how they fit.

Vacuum has nothing to do with it.
The gravity does.
The gravitational difference is what causes a slower/faster decay.

Quick test for James: What's the gravity differential
across a 1cm diameter ball in Earth orbit? How about a
muon which is a point particle?

Sure,
that is why they don't die as fast as the one on the ground.

Huh? The one's created on the ground enjoy the same
freedom from collisions.

still ball spinning stuff. and gravitational differences.

You need to show *what* gravitational differences and
how these differences effect the lifetime of muon.

Empirical evidence suggests that in this case time dilation
is due to their great velocities, not due to the gravity
difference (its effect is far, far too small to account
for the extended muon lifetimes).
