Bold Damour is going to go > beyond Einstein - he wants to have constants that vary. Silly Lee Smolin has thought deeply about the variability of the speed of light: http://www.edge.org/3rd_culture/smolin03/smolin03_print.html Silly Lee Smolin: "But there is another possibility. This is that the principle of relativity is preserved, but Einstein's special theory of relativity requires modification so as to allow photons to have a speed that depends on energy. The most shocking thing I have learned in the last year is that this is a real possibility. A photon can have an energy-dependent speed without violating the principle of relativity!" Unfortunately sillier Thibault Damour does not understand the problem. He has learned by rote the word combinations "Lorentz violations" and "constants that vary" and repeats them from time to time but can say nothing more. Silly Lee Smolin is obviously disappointed but nothing can be done. String theorists are definitely the silliest members of Einstein criminal cult. Pentcho Valev pvalev@yahoo.com
