But as usual, I see you demand that I answer your questions while you pointedly ignore the question I have repeatedly asked you about the meaning of "same point in spacetime", even after I put the question into a form that only requires a simple "agree/disagree" type answer--again see the last two paragraphs of https://groups.google.com/d/msg/everything-list/jFX-wTm_E_Q/LF0Xcds_qtQJ . Sorry Edward, but this is really rude behavior, adults having a civil discussion understand that they are each expected to make some effort to address the other's questions and arguments, you can't expect to have the unique power to dictate what will be discussed (especially when the line of discussion you are so stubbornly ignoring is one stemming from an argument of mine that I think shows a basic mathematical contradiction in your ideas about p-time simultaneity). I will be happy to answer all your questions and arguments in detail, just as I have always done in the past, if you are willing to address my question in some way--even if it's not a simple agree/disagree answer, but something else like saying that you find the question unclear and in need of clarification. But if you outright refuse to talk about anything but your own preferred lines of argument, then I'll take that as a sign that you are unwilling to show any basic respect to others who disagree with you, and that you are only interested in lecturing about your ideas rather than engaging in two-way conversation, in which case there'd be no point in my responding to your posts any further.
