Hypnotists in Einstein criminal cult know how to trap forever a long
train inside a short tunnel

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSRIyDfo_mY&mode=related&search=

but when they trap a 80m long pole inside a 40m long barn, trapping is
not forever but only for a very short time:

http://www.math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/Relativity/SR/barn_pole.html
"These are the props. You own a barn, 40m long, with automatic doors
at either end, that can be opened and closed simultaneously by a
switch. You also have a pole, 80m long, which of course won't fit in
the barn....So, as the pole passes through the barn, there is an
instant when it is completely within the barn. At that instant, you
close both doors simultaneously, with your switch. Of course, you open
them again pretty quickly, but at least momentarily you had the
contracted pole shut up in your barn."

In order to solve the problem, philosophers in Einstein criminal cult
have organized a symposium:

http://www.ias.umn.edu/timeandrelativity.php
"This three day symposium, organized by Professor Michel Janssen
(History of Science, Technology and Medicine) and Professor Antigone
Nounou (Philosophy), will address issues raised by Harvey R Brown's
Physical Relativity. Space-Time Structure from a Dynamical Perspective
(Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2005), co-winner of the 2006 Lakatos
Award, awarded annually by the London School of Economics and
Political Science for outstanding contributions to the philosophy of
science. "

Harvey Brown's most important discovery is described by Bradford Skow,
University of Massachusetts:

http://ndpr.nd.edu/review.cfm?id=6603
"There are many things I might be asking when I ask someone to explain
length contraction. I might be asking, "Why do different inertial
observers (who are not at relative rest) disagree about the length of
a given (inertially moving) rod?" Or I might be asking, "Why is a
moving rod shorter than its stationary counterpart (of the same proper
length)?" Or I might be asking, "If you take a rod that is initially
at rest (in your frame of reference), and accelerate it, why is it
shorter after you accelerate it than it was before you accelerated
it?"......I'm not sure what Brown thinks about geometrical answers to
the first why-question, but he certainly thinks that geometrical
answers to the second two why-questions are bad explanations. He
thinks that good answers to these questions say something about the
way in which the forces holding the parts of the rod together depend
on velocity of the rod. Only that is a story of what causes the
particles to get closer together, and so what causes the rod to
shrink."

So at the symposium Einstein philosophers will try to understand what
happens to the forces holding the parts of the 80m long pole together
so that the particles of the pole eventually get closer together, the
80m long pole shrinks to a 40m long pole and so gets trapped inside
the 40m long barn. If Einstein philosophers can understand and then
explain this to brothers physicists, brothers physicists will stop
reopening the doors of the barn "pretty quickly" and the 80m long pole
will remain trapped inside the 40m long barn forever.
