Edgar logic: "There exist a common universal present, therefore block time is false"... yeah \o/
"It's obvious, so it's true, don't get it why you didn't register" \o/ "My theory is true, any informed person could see it at first look, the world thought SR proved simultaneity is relative, but no, the world misread SR, I know it, because I'm the one who said it, and what I say is true, it's obvious" \o/ boring troll... 2014/1/16 Quentin Anciaux <[email protected]> > > > > 2014/1/16 Edgar L.
