To date, nobody has presented a coherent and self-consistent theory that 
explains ALL of the experiments within the domain of SR, other than SR itself 
and theories equivalent to it [#]. Certainly YOU have not done so.

	[#] In the sense that they are experimentally indistinguishable
	from SR.

... not NEARLY sufficient. For emission theory to be accepted, there are 
HUNDREDS of experiments which must be addressed, not just one.
