Re: Is "time" a measurable variable?

My dear Doctordick, the real question has nothing to do with the strawmen you keep putting in the mouths of others and why you demonstrate such uh what is it?

...oh yes, accurate perceptions of intent. That's it.

The only complaint here is that the article has nothing to do with what you say it does. Do I not make myself clear? You're certainly welcome to argue that GR and QM disagree (which I agree with completely, but then so does every physicist out there, again, so what?), just recognize that throwing up this article as somehow being proof that time is inadequate or that Einstein is wrong because he's incomplete in your view, is just plain...irrelevant...

I'll try to be clear: I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm saying that your argumentative thread is not making sense, and its really *not* because I'm blonde!

Cool! Just pointing to the article doesn't help yer point! You've lost even the smart crowd here. I'll tell ya my high school Geometry teacher pounded it into me: "those big jumps in your proof are *not* obvious. You're missing a bunch of steps if you expect to get credit for it."

I'll have a Hurricane please,

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
