The above statements do not refute what I said.  <shrug>

However, the above statement is so ignorant.  Indeed, it would come
from a professor of physics is quite astonishing.  All data is subject
to interpretations with data being experimental results.  <shrug>

For example after your nonsense below.

Photon deflection requires such interpretation of experimental data.
In this case, the experimental data is the delay of electromagnetic
signals such as Shipiro's Venus-RADAR-bouncing experiment.  Here we
go.  Let's say the Schwarzschild metric is the actual representation
of real life (which it is not so but just pretending).  It gives a
deflection twice of Newtonian result.  That means the actual path of
the photon increases by two times a small amount which is (U = G M /
c^2 / R, with all parameters self-explanatory).  Given the gravitation
time dilation nature of the metric (adding 1 U to the time of travel),
a photon would take (3 U) longer than in flat spacetime.  However,
experiments time after time only show the photon delay of (2 U) which
is incorrectly interpreted as twice the Newtonian deflection.  Only
the combination of the Newtonian deflection (1 U) and time dilation (1
U) would explain the observed delay of (2 U).  So, Shipiro's results
if properly interpreted would conclude a Newtonian deflected amount (1
U) plus gravitational time dilation (1 U) that is not what is offered
by the Schwarzschild metric.  <shrug>

You mean same of your bullshit goes in here.  I see the IC I see.

I have explained there is a difference between Larmor's presentation
of the Lorentz transform and Poincare's.  Larmor's Lorentz transform
must always reference back to the stationary background of the Aether
while Poincare's Lorentz transform only is valid in a special case.
See my post below.  <shrug>

This is not true once again.  Even with the principle of relativity
invalidated, all frames can still obey the same set of laws of
physics.  This is what I call the principle of Consistency where the
principle of relativity is merely a special case.  <shrug>

Your lack of understanding makes you asks this stupid question.
