     I got no replies to my previous questions, but I am still
curious for answers. So here is one more try.

Improved Michelson-Morley experiments detect the daily
rotation of the earth but _not_ the rotation around the sun.
[Hayden, in Physics Essays, vol 4, nr 3, 1991].

Hayden then asks relativity two questions:

- This result contradicts Einstein's idea that horizontal
  rods in the laboratory are `Lorentz-contracted' due to
  daily rotation (for this would imply a null-result for
  Michelson-Morley).
  So what has relativity to say about this?

- If laboratory-speed is detected by Michelson-Morley,
  then why not the much larger speed of the earth
  around the sun?

I would say that these questions deserve firm answers from
relativity. On this net, I see people reacting to the most
insane criticism on relativity. Surely there must be some-
body who wants to consider serious criticism? (or at least
condemn it as nonsense -with reasons).
