Pentcho Valev - 25 Nov 2005 06:50 GMT Albert Einstein, "Relativity", Chapter 7: "There is hardly a simpler law in physics than that according to which light is propagated in empty space. Every child at school knows, or believes he knows, that this propagation takes place in straight lines with a velocity c=300000 km/s."
Chapter 22: "...the law of the constancy of the velocity of light in vacuo, which constitutes one of the two fundamental assumptions in the special theory of relativity and to which we have already frequently referred, cannot claim any unlimited validity. A curvature of rays of light can only take place when the velocity of propagation of light varies with position. Now we might think that as a consequence of this, the special theory of relativity and with it the whole theory of relativity would be laid in the dust. BUT IN REALITY THIS IS NOT THE CASE."

Every child at school knows that if A meets B then B meets A. This is not an approximation as has already been shown to the first order of small quantities, it is a law far simpler than any stupidity about speed. Valev has omitted the chapter title, "The Apparent Incompatibility of the Law of Propagation of Light with the Principle of Relativity", which does not discuss the Principle of Relativity AT ALL, it being KNOWN to be a simpler law. The intro SUCKS, as does Einstein.

Valev can think, and he does. He's spotted the lie. Vanlintel would sooner die.
"...the law of the constancy of the velocity of light in vacuo, which constitutes one of the two fundamental assumptions in the special theory of relativity and to which we have already frequently referred, cannot claim any unlimited validity." In other words, it is false. A Lie. Bullshit. Crapola. Phuckwittery. Observation: http://www.britastro.org/vss/gifc/00918-ck.gif Explanation: http://www.ebicom.net/~rsf1/sekerin.htm (fig 3) (Or stars explode twice in three months).
That's called "spelling it out". Androcles. 'Many people would sooner die than think - in fact they do' --Bertrand Russell.

Although very interesting, that's a slightly different subject than the one of gravitation that Einstein had in mind. Wasn't this one already discussed in the relativity group? If not, you could start a thread on it.

Nonsense. The time for a radioed signal to reach Cassini-Huyghens from Earth does not equal the time for signal from Cassini-Huyghens to reach Earth. The speed is ~ 3.0003m/sec one way and ~ 2.9997m/sec the other, depending on the relative positions of Earth and Saturn at the epoch of emission. There is no "limit speed". The theory of relativity is not "workable". Newtonian physics is workable which is why it is still in use, the same cannot be said.

Igor, funny enough you're mistaken, your new education is useless for correctly understanding old English publications. Maybe you were too much in newsgroups, and don't read enough publications, especially of that time period -- also just a suggestion. Or learn German -- just another suggestion. In any case, Einstein's Geschwindigkeit in the above text means "speed" in the jargon of this newsgroup. And if you knew to which calculation Einstein referred in the above text, you would already know that.

I now think that you really don't know to what calculation Einstein referred in the second text -- for if you knew, it wouldn't make sense for you to suggest that the meaning of his first velocity is different form the second one.

It can do wonders for your outlook. It might be >worth your while Just a suggestion. It's not the difference between speed and velocity. But you have to be careful in specifying who is making the measurement. General relativity locally reduces to special relativity, and the local speed of light is always c. When you throw in the spacetime curvature of the general theory, the speed can differ over extended regions. E.g. the Shapiro effect.

Gregory L. Hansen - 27 Nov 2005 15:38 GMT >(Lie should be spelt Lige.) > [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > >How is it the speed? Does it work like refraction? How do you measure a speed? But the time it takes for something to go from point A to point B. In special relativity the elapsed time depends on the motion of the observer, but space transforms, too, so the ratio of the distance over time is constant for a light ray. General relativity retains that for local measurements. That is, when everything involved in a measurement is in a small enough region that the spacetime curvature doesn't matter.
So when you have a light ray bending around the Sun, you could have a sequence of observers each making their own measurements of the speed in their own small regions, and each gets c. But the distant observer will get a different result because of the curvature between them. The distant observer, making careful measurements of the local observers' rulers by e.g. the apparant sizes in his telescope, and comparing their timers to his own, will disagree with the lengths and elapsed times that are reported and will find a different ratio. And he'll disagree that each local observer measures the same c.
Dear Pentcho would find his objections, if not his incredulity and indignation, evaporating if he carefully thought about what a measurement means and who was making it, and transformed both space and time as the theory demands. Or, for that matter, improved his critical reading skills. He quotes:
Chapter 22: "...the law of the constancy of the velocity of light in vacuo, which constitutes one of the two fundamental assumptions in the special theory of relativity and to which we have already frequently referred, cannot claim any unlimited validity."
Well, general relativity is not special relativity. It's not clear whether he noticed that.

Isn't there some way you can accentuate the things you think are important?

OK. I'm following this in sci.skeptic, where kooks abound but where quite a few of the engineers (hopefully including yours truly) are at least layman-level conversant with the principles of science.

The few I looked at seem to prove your contention, although how an "electronic engineer" managed to get through both general and semiconductor physics, not to mention E&M, while continuing to make the claims he does, is rather puzzling. Maybe the same way Creationists get through the "evolution" part of biology classes - parrot the text while refusing to either accept it or to actually think about it. --

Characteristic IMPEDANCE is not resistance. No power is lost in a coax, save through the resistance, which is of course kept to a practical minimum by the use of copper.

In English it has not. I do believe Merriam Webster is an American dictionary.

Bruce Salem is a phuckwit, shown by wackypedia (the book anyone can write) to be a laughingstock.
Engineers are scientists unable to stomach the excrement of the male bovine of academia, the builders of technology. They are for the most part gentle quiet folk, providing workaround solutions to such fuckups as the general theory of relativity applied to GPS satellites; whereas academia writes papers, engineers write code for the automatic upload of ephemeris from groundstations. Engineers have far more knowledge of how things really work than do arrogant crackpots who only think they know. Show me a man who has never made a mistake and I'll show you a professor. Show me a man who has made a mistake and I'll show you a man who has built something that works.

I spent the first year of my life in Abergavenny, two years travelling world wide on business, eighteen years in Pittsburgh, two years in Port Charlotte Fl and now I'm back in Englestan without a turban. My younger sister still lives in Abergavenny where her granddaughter speaks better Cymraeg than I, which is not at all. I can just barely follow it spoken, as I learnt from my grandmother who would never use English when talking to her sisters. I can still pronounce "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch" which I learnt while holidaying with my parents in Pwllheli at the age of 8, even if I can't spell it and had to look it up.

1. I didn't suggest that it's my word choice -- this sloppiness is yours, don't shoot the messenger! 2. It's your claim (for you to prove) that it's sloppiness of those who choose "velocity", and not a difference of convention. 3. Apparently you had a quick look and noticed many Arxiv articles, and that's why you now changed your demand... and you try to trick me in doing the work for you, and next you'll say that it's only a few and/or the journals are not very reputable, depending on the result. Sorry, you can do that yourself (you'll find at least one).
Anyway, as a result I encountered many interesting papers. :)

In agreement with experience we further assume you are another stupid bastard that thinks peer-review has any meaning, because in agreement with experience "assume" has passed peer review, the moron Einstein wrote it. Yes, the other "convention" in measuring velocity is to ASSUME that the velocity of a ray of light to go from A to A is c. "2AB/(t'A-tA) = c " -- peer-reviewed idiot Einstein. Ref http://www.fourmilab.ch/etexts/einstein/specrel/www/

But it seems to be rare in new papers, in 10 min. search I stumbled on only one of 5 years ago (in the "Modern Physics Letters" about neutrino oscillations) that apparently (for that's not my piece of cake) still used "velocity" for v as in the LT. Maybe it was a glitch. ;-)

YOU were the person who wrote: "velocity is often used as synonym for speed"

How many of those Google Scholar references were to peer reviewed papers in the current physics literature?

We both perfectly know the difference between speed and velocity. The thing is that you don't seem to know the diffference between an obnoxious troll like Valev and an religious ether engineer like yourself. That is of course the primary reason of your always ending up defending the most obvious idiots of these newsgroups and making the most irrelevant and misplaced remarks to those who kick the trolls around.

You still don't understand that you joined an anti-ether witch hunt (or do you?).

Your first agenda is to show of, and that's not harmful, most people appreciate you for that and because of that I first thought that you're a nice guy.

I have no problem with people who think differently, quite on the contrary. I make fun of those who think differently and who at the same time bully those who "don't think differently".

I'm beginning to think you are more sensible than you first gave me an impression of. Spermless Van de merde is all you say he is. Nice guy he is not. Bully he is. He gets into difficulties with definitions. For example, every real number has two square roots, but moortel thinks sqrt(x) is only the positive root, the negative root has to be written -sqrt(x). Yet x can be negative. <shrug> You'll find his difficulties displayed in what he calls "fumbles" by other people, mistakenly thinking they are in error when they point out exceptions to the generalized rule. Such people pass examinations when the pass mark is 40%, never realizing they were 60% wrong for the rest of their lives. Its called "stupidity". You have another example with the "peer-review" crowd, exemplified by Blind Poe: Einstein: ½[tau(0,0,0,t)+tau(0,0,0,t+x'/(c-v)+x'/(c+v))] = tau(x',0,0,t+x'/(c-v)) Reference: http://www.fourmilab.ch/etexts/einstein/specrel/www/

They are all the typical learn-by-rote parrots, unable to think for themselves. Do not expect them to admit they are in error. Another is Bielawski. Dirk Van de moortel wrote:

Bielawski ran away with his tail between his legs, he found his capability to withstand blatant contradiction wasn't infinite. Uncle Al has gone, spitting venom.
I goofed the other day. I referred to the Welsh language as "Cymru" (which is the nation) instead of "Cymraeg". "Mea culpa" as soon as it was pointed out. That is SO easy.

He still does on occasion, but he refuses to discuss what hes misunderstanding.
*sigh*, I really don't see how he can sustain the whining about trolls and "not doing physics" while contributing nothing himself.

No, not at all. Their is a similarity though: both may believe that they are working to heal the patient. But similarities between Western and African health care is a completely different subject.

There are citerions of external pressure which force people to vote by their feet. Assume 2 doors, door A is labelled "science", door B "faith", healthy people will choose one or the other, depending on their mood, but most sick people will prefer door A. When they feel the pain, they do know right or wrong. Which means, knowledge hurts, while faith never does.

What about just having faith in science?

Isn't there some way you can accentuate the things you thin are important? I just found the site for TraxMath, but it is code fo 800 x 600 resolution, now watch for some idiot ask me "don't tell m you use 640 x 480?"
