String theorists about Einstein's 1905 false light postulate:

http://motls.blogspot.com/2006/12/lorentz-violation-and-deformed-special.html
Lubos Motl: "The second postulate of special relativity morally
follows from the first one once you promote the value of the speed of
light to a law of physics which is what Einstein did."

Yes string theorists are definitely the silliest members of Einstein
criminal cult.
