Yes you got that right roundtrips is what maks SR go round. To defeat
the con of Einstein you will have to let the light travel symetric
without having a roundtrip, just symmetrical distances.

+ or - distances doesn't matter, Einsteins theory of relativity and
the Lorentz transforms is only valid for roundtrips.

Yeah you go count on that 1,5 half symmetrical trip f.ckers, and watch
carefully where your simultaneous events in space goes f.ckers.

When will the first stupid f.cker show up conclude we can not expect
the fibre sending a signal from same place in space in both
directions?

No of course the light from the verical standing fibre in the middle
of ship will not send out the light spherical... starting at one
moment in the inertial space surrounding the ship.

Yeah i know the 'ONE' fibre occupy two dimensions of reality according
to the Lorentz transform muahahahahahahahha

f.ck you are slow thinkers.

Actually, every post confirms you for what it is now obvious you are - some

There isn't any paradox in the Twin Puzzle. It is a *teaching*
exercise. Those who see a paradox in the Twin Puzzle haven't learned
enough about special relativity, and that's the point of having the
puzzle to work out in the first place.

There is a way to cut an 8x8 piece of paper into four pieces and
reassemble those four pieces so that you put together a rectangle that
is 5x13. For some folks, seeing something that once had an area of 64
become something with an area of 65 is an unresolvable paradox, proof
positive that simple geometry is filled with basic flaws. Of course,
those folks are fools, and are simply stymied by a little puzzle that
they can't figure out.

Which is an experimentally confirmed fact, not just a mental example

You are a sad and pathetic and i am pretty sure you are aware of it,
only your roundtrip will make the light travel invariant.

Well if they are based upon faulthy setups and ideas and do not
correctly measure the one way speed of light they are hardly facts.

Which IQ? There are several, you know.
And when was your measured last? When you were young?
And do please distinguish "intelligence" from "expertise", as an
extremely intelligent (by some measure) harpist may not have any idea
what she's talking about regarding international finance or chemistry
or chess.

It's not only presumptuous to suppose that one IQ measure performed
years ago would be any indication of your ability to critique anything
well out of your area of expertise, it is also ... well ... stupid.

Yea - IQ is a rather interesting thing.  Before mentioning my experience I
would like to say IMHO it is basically useless - Feynman had an IQ of only
128 yet few would doubt his genius categorisation.  Mine was measured at
primary school at 80 or something like that - cretin level I believe.  It
meant I was put into 8Z at high school and when I wanted to do advanced math
at grade 9 and 10 my math teacher had to go into bat for me showing I got
100% in my math tests - in fact I topped all of grade 8.  Evidently it was
touch and go but I was allowed to do it.  Then in grade 9, due to extreme
laziness on my part, I was doing great at science and math but just passing
English.  Some school guidance officer wanted to send me to 'opportunity
school'.  My science and math teachers were flabbergasted and found out it
came about when the school guidance officer dredged up my old IQ test on the
urging of my English teacher who felt the disparity between my science and
math marks and English was a concern.  First thing my parents did is send me
for a visit to my doctor who at that time had just completed or was about to
complete his studies to be a psychiatrist.  Although he could have tested me
he thought it best a go to a child psychiatrist who basically laughed his
head off.  He said different people have different abilities and different
types of IQ tests emphasise different things.  He could see I was an
abstract mathematical type thinker and gave me an IQ test biased towards
that - I got 151.  The latest one I did returned 136.

Bottom line is I suppose IQ tests have their uses - but also can be abused.

Or rather, ONE of the IQ measurements performed of Feynman performed
at one time was 128. At one point, a particular IQ measurement for me
returned 143. Your point is thus made again.

Even the occasional chimp will come up with an IQ of 151 in a multiple choice
test, Hobba.

I reckon 80 is closer to the mark in your case Hobba...and that's pretty high
for a relativist...

In any event, how does one defeat the round trip paradox when all ticks
are accounted for?

Event 1:   (0,0)_O = (0,0)_A
Event 2:   (L,L/v)_O = (0,L/(vg))_A
(shift)
Event 3:   (0,2L/v)_O = (0,2L/(vg))_A'

Outgoing ticks seen from O by A:
L/(vg) * sqrt(1-v/c)/sqrt(1+v/c) = (L/v) * (1 - v/c)

Incoming ticks seen from O by A:
L/(vg) * sqrt(1+v/c)/sqrt(1-v/c) = (L/v) * (1 + v/c)

Total ticks seen from O by A:
2L/v

Time until A reaches endpoint as O sees it:
L/(vg) * sqrt(1+v/c)/sqrt(1-v/c) = (L/v) * (1 + v/c)

Time it takes A to return from endpoint as O sees it:
L/(vg) * sqrt(1-v/c)/sqrt(1+v/c) = (L/v) * (1 - v/c)

Total time elapsed for O:
2L/v

Total time elapsed for A:
2L/(vg)

I for one don't see a problem here.

There is NO paradox.

Time is absolute. Clocks are not speed dependent.

Both twins age at the same rate that they would do if they stayed at home.

Only in classical mechanics, Ralph. Special relativity is under
discussion - try reading for comprehension for a change.

In any event one must have "speed-dependent clocks" if one wants to
have a constant speed of light regardless of observer motion.

Of course Ralph/Henri doesn't quite do it that way anyway, but the
c'=c+v hypothesis has already been directly tested, at the particle
level -- and it failed.  Other experiments show c' = c fairly
conclusively.

A variant of the twin paradox has also been tested, using muons
playing "wander at high speed about a ring".  The results were
also very conclusive; time dilation occurs.

It would be very strange to hypothesize SR at the atomic level but
nBaT at the astronomical level.

hello mr Draper

Nice imaginary choreography, no it didn't hit my chin. This brings us

I'm just curious how you established the consensus that Eric is an

Does it consist of anyone that isn't on a public crank list?

I learn from Eric that a consensus is something you enforce upon the
reader.

You didn't reject the theory.  That would have been the decent thing
to do. Thus-apparently you have enough doubt of Eric's sanity to
answer your own question.

> What's your sample pool? Does it consist of more than yourself?

Being an idiot is just a point of view. For example Eric would
probably disagree with our new found consensus.

Don't forget: "How to defeat the round trip paradox." was question NR

Ah. Then it appears you learn in a funny way, doesn't it? Have you
considered learning from some source other than the internet? For
example, I'm sure there's a dictionary containing "consensus"
somewhere on the ward.

Not at all. The decent thing to do with a claim is to ask the proposer
about the basis and the evidence for their claim. Only an idiot would
sanction shooting down a claim without asking about the supporting
evidence. I'm withholding judgment on your claim until I know more,
and that's why I ask. This does not constitute agreement or
disagreement.

Interestingly, Henri, no one is trying to "beat" you. It's not a
contest, and if it were, you would not be equipped for it. If you
think it is a contest, I wonder what you imagine the prize is.

As for wasting your time, no one has asked you to post your musings
and idle reckonings on a newsgroup. When you do, people are inclined
to ask you questions about it, especially when it appears to make
little sense. It's usually at this point that you say you don't have
the time to answer questions, because you are too busy revolutionizing
physics by posting your musings and idle reckonings on a newsgroup.

So if Paul's set of knowledge and Ralph's set of knowledge have the
empty set as their intersection, it *must* be because Paul doesn't
know anything. It isn't as if Paul has a doctorate in physics or
anything.

No, clearly the guy who lies about his name and forged his diplomas is
the more educated one.

Interestingly, that is completely irrelevant to my response to your
earlier comment. As usual, when you say something stupid, and someone
challenges your stupid comment, you respond by issuing another stupid
comment in a different direction.

Does saying, "OK, I was wrong," *ever* occur to you in the course of a

I had hoped that we could fight ignorance with a proactive rather
than a reactive approach, but this is clearly the improper forum for
that. A quick survey of the length of threads initiated by or drifting
to nonsense compared to the length of threads based on sound thinking
reveals the true interest in the proposal.

While it would be a useful project to contribute to the FAQ, the
intent was to educate in the context of discussion, a virtual
"classroom" if you will. There's no point in contributing to a
reference that none of the "students"  will read or attempt to learn
from. The intention was to focus on *exactly* what is wrong in
someone's thinking (which varies from person to person), set it
straight, and then make progress from there.

I had high hopes -- really -- that perhaps one misguided soul would
read something sensible and say, "Oh... Really?...Oh. I see I was
confused. OK, I get it now. Now what about...?" My head knew better,
my heart does not.

How good of you to decide on the validity of an experimental result
BEFORE even reading about it. Highly scientific.

In contrast, when a scientist runs into an experimental result in
direct conflict with his expectations, he questions his expectations.

Think about the difference. If you don't understand why scientists
operate the way they do, at a basic level, then ponder why you spend
time posting to science groups.

Except that it isn't theoretical. It is experimentally demonstrated,

choose to not believe measurements when they conflict with your
expectations. That IS delusional, almost by definition.

It doesn't support the point for YOU, but it does for HIM. My point
(poorly made) is that there are some, when faced with a puzzle they
cannot figure out, assume that there is a fundamental flaw in the

Ah, no it's not. It does, however, reveal certain assumptions on the

Yes, PD, I know there's a hole there - that's the point - the pieces

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banach-Tarski_paradox

It amuses me to no end to see it explained that while it takes 5
pieces, it is impossible to cut a sphere up into those 5 pieces.

I found the link to the Axiom of Choice to be quite interesting,
despite how much I hated my proofs class and any usage of formal
proofs in mathematics. That class _definitely_ excluded pure

But now you are aware that sometimes, if you don't show the appropriate
care, you can run into trouble, just as the guys that made analysis
rigorous, guys like Wiestrass, were doing it in response to real problems,
such as + 1 - 1 + 1 ..... = 0 in Fourier series.  That is the main reason
for doing what is colloquially called your 'epsilonics' ie a 'rigorous'
treatment of calculus.  You should see the good natured fun my statistical
modelling teacher makes of pure mathematicians.  I particularly enjoyed last
Monday's lecture when, after having a go at pure mathematicians, he refereed
to a result of Hardy - the purest of pure mathematicians - who was quite
unhappy that he contributed to applied mathematics with his Hardy-Weinberg
theorem.  I mentioned it to him at Fridays tutorial - and yes the irony was
not lost on him.

BTW I am a bit upset at the current math degree - you no longer have to do
your 'epslonics' - in fact it has been relegated to a masters/honours year
elective subject - evidently students with your view won out and it is now
not required.  Such is life.  I should also mention, since I have done it, I
probably won't be taking it at Masters level - but you never know.  I
already have decided to take more stats/financial math subjects rather than
the computational physics stuff because I am a bit sick and tired of
programming after doing it for 25 years as a profession.

Also students now gripe about different things - one guy enrolled in his
Honours year but couldn't find a thesis advisor.  When I did it I was
advised to forget about an Honours year and do a Masters instead for that
very reason - you can do a Masters by all coursework, coursework and thesis,
or purely by thesis - the choice is yours.  And to get into a PhD program
you need at least a high second class Honours - preferably first class
honours.  With a Masters as long as you pass they will generally admit you -
although if you just passed on your third try you probably would be
discouraged.  Trouble is, here in Australia,  Masters are generally not
Government sponsored - Honours years are.

I do not enjoy the exceptionally rigorous mathematics, but I recognize
the need. Thanks to such irritating work, stuff like Fourier analysis
is on solid ground.

Stuff like existence theorems I use implicitly when I solve a
differential equation. I, however, have no interest in proving them.
The knowledge that the relevant theorems exist is enough for me.

At any rate, it sounds like you are enjoying your classes. As long as
I'm not stuck doing epsilon-delta style proofs [RAGE!!! I HATE THOSE!]
I will be happy. Pure mathematics would drive me batshit insane. I'm
too much of a physicist in mindset.

I would like to believe I can borrow from pure math at will without
getting too confused, though. I have enough of a math background that
I routinely worry "eh can we really do this" in my various courses and
it helps me spot subtleties that I would otherwise miss.

Yea that's odd.

If I decide to spend another semester or two, I could pick up a math
degree in addition to my physics degree. Two of those classes are
called "advanced calculus" which essentially proves every theorem ever
used in calculus from the ground up using epsilon-delta proofs - which
I think are your epslonics - WHICH I HATE. SO MUCH.

I don't think a math degree should be without those, and my dislike of
them makes me wonder if I really want that additional degree.

Interesting. While I doubt I will be pursuing an education in
Australia it is always interesting to hear how other places do things.

Are you going via thesis, or just coursework? Or both? Since you are
enrolled in a course, I think I can assume it won't be thesis only -
which is something I had never heard of.

Probably by coursework only - the reason being the trouble in finding a
thesis advisor.  Here is what I am doing -
http://www.courses.qut.edu.au/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Courses.woa/wa/selectMajorFromM
ain?structureID=10829&courseID=4199#10829

I am doing the Mathematical Modelling/Applied Mathematics strand with fluid
dynamics and stuff like that.  But as mentioned I am thinking of giving the
computational physics stuff a miss and do a bit more stats and financial
math.

The thesis/research Masters is:
http://www.courses.qut.edu.au/cgi-bin/WebObjects/Courses.woa/wa/selectMajorFromM

It has a small coursework component.

Not to preach, but doing proofs (even if they seem pointless), enhances
the ability to think logically and precisely, anf that's valuable no

I've fiddled with those dissection 'paradoxes'.
I would hesitate to say they were less legit than Banach-Tarski.
While it can be said that certain areas are less visible than others
there were other considerations that made them very interesting
and even more puzzling. I can't recall exactly what it was without
digging it up on my hard drive but it had something to do with
certain examples where the interpretation of the origin of the
areas became extremely arbitrary.

In the paper and scissors dissections, a solid figure is decomposed into
a figure with a hole in it, and the increased area equals the area of
the hole.  Almost no one would find that pardoxical, while the B-T
decompositions are paradoxical to almost everyone.

One interesting consideration is the role of the Fibbonaci series, where
the relationship F(n)*F(n) - F(n-1)*F(n+1) = +/-1 can be exploited
geometrically.

Figures with holes in them that can be formed but also
figures with appendages.

It is convenient to describe the apparent differences
in terms of equal areas (which many websites on the topic
do incorrectly) and simply say:
There are no extra or missing areas, just shape differences.

A 'paradox' is that the proof of this conclusion involves the denial of it.
To prove the conclusion (that there are no extra or missing areas)
we have to identify the extra and missing parts (declare their existence)
and then show that they cancel each other out.

These kinds of proofs are deadly and always generate a house of cards.
For instance, it is possible to geometrically cancel the extra or missing areas out
and yet still show an extra or missing area. Arithmetically everything is still
accounted for but geometrically a further illusion beyond the original is created
and it requires a similar yet different proof answering a similar but different question.
Holy grail for the gravy train if you don't mind ultimately being burned as a witch.

Geometric mean <= Arithmetic mean.

That's an interesting generator of shape similarity but it needn't be +/-1.
An excess or deficit of many units is possible without loss of illusion.
Also the shapes of the holes and appendages need not be rectangular.

But the latter won't be used to support claims of paradoxically

A true defeat of the twin paradox requires a special geomtry of mass.
A twin on a certain trip has no twim anomally of time as long as the
relative frame never changes.

So as the rocket flies away, a planet must rocket toward the flying
twin from the correct direct, nullifiy the paradox in GR.

GR can nullify the paradox.

Think of the rate of well change relative to change of location in the
gravity well. A gravity well moveing toward the person is different
from the person moving in the gravity well. A vector in the GR system
has this property! It keeps track of all reference.

Remmeebr this is General Reltivity where gravity must be fomrulated
also.  And to allow the rocket to spin arround a moving planet,
nulllifies!!!!!!!!!!

Have the rocketing twin fly in orbit arround the planet approaching
the original planet. And the lost time from the short outbound trip
can be made up by the more massive planet!.

You'll have to be more specific.  Best I can do here is the classical
O-A dual-observer problem, which is indeed symmetric: if O shoots a
light beam at A, and A shoots a light beam at O, both observe the same
shifting, assuming both use identical equipment (e.g., He/Ne lasers or
sodium lamps).

different frames. This f.cking event is with in one frame but the
f.cking frame event exists at two different moments and places.

YEAH YOU GOT THAT RIGHT ONE EVENT, ONE FRAME, BUT AT TWO DIFFERENT
PLACES.

SO EITHER YOUR f.cking SHIP EXPANDED TO THE TWO PLACES OR YOU f.cked
SIMULTANITY SO BAD IT NEVER WILL RECOVER.

I beleive the later is more correct.

"I am a proud relativist i've been f.cking simultanity since 1903 and
i have no plans to stop"
