As I said before, your non-understanding is least of my concerns. If
you want physical arguments, go and read my post again. If you still
don't understand something, I suggest you take a basic course in
quantum mechanics (which evidently you really need).


Considering that his favorite argument is that the distance
from A to A is zero during two-way speed measurements of
any sort, I think one might have to go a bit lower than
quantum mechanics, which is a fairly abstract bit o'
math... :-)

Light-time distance from A to A (or A to B, B to A) [is] zero. Light-time
distance from A(B) to B'(A'), B'(A') to A''(B''), or A to A'', [is not]
zero.

Two observers at each end of twenty miles of railroad track are both to
observe the caboose between them going away (contracting) from both of them
at the same time, or observe the engine coming (expanding) toward both of
them at the same time. All observers have to agree in their observation of
the same thing at the same time. Either the caboose is to be observed from
both ends of the twenty miles to disappear into itself half-way between them
on the track, so to have the same observation, or the engine is to be
observed to run over both of them at the same time twenty miles apart, so to
have the same observation. You can't have opposed "inertial" frames. More,
you can't have any two or more [vastly differing] "inertial" frames at all.
All observers in any direction, at any angle, must be one and the same
observer in one and the same direction, at one and the same angle. So time
for a traveler cannot be observed to vastly slowed down, regarding one
observer's observational angle, while from another and directly opposed
angle of observation, to another observer, time for the same traveler be
observed to be vastly speeded up. The two observations from directly
opposing "inertial" frames and angles of observation cancelling each other
out. The "inertial" frame observer observing 0 light seconds in distance
opening (expanding) to 10 light years in distance, so to speak, will not
have the same object-event time observation as the "inertial" frame observer
observing 10 light years in distance closing (contracting) to 0 light
seconds in distance, so to speak.
