<p>Yes I've read Selleri's book which contains, in my opinion, very
valid and justified arguments why Einstein was wrong.</p>
<p>At one point when I worked on the early GPS system I tried to
show people that the chip velocity and phase velocity of te EM

<p>The Ionic layer delay would have made the measurement difficult

<p>Hi Wolf,</p>
<p>I also feel that this is an appropriate description of reality.
My teachers at school, my professors at the university, and the
leading scientists in our cultural region seem to me all
programmed in the way described by Dilbert.</p>
<p>A specific indication of this behaviour is the fact that the
question of an ether in relativity is treated as a <i>taboo</i>.
The well known theorist Franco Selleri, who was also a member of
our London PIRT community, has tried during about two decades to
initiate a discussion about ether. He did not find anybody of
main stream who was willing to talk to him. And regarding this
topic, I am reading the excellent book of Ludwik Kostro about
Einstein and the ether. The arguments of Einstein presented
there are partly related to antiquated physics, partly did
Einstein not react to arguments. In a discussion with Hendrik A.
Lorentz about necessity of an ether for rotation he presented as
his own example that the Foucault pendulum cannot be explained
without an ether. But then he said that he could nevertheless
not accept an ether because it were in conflict with one of his
principles. Einstein was even stronger with this. In 1926, in
the context of some faked experiments, he said to his friend Max
von Laue: Experiments are not important for me because my theory
is so well considered and so perfect that experiments are not
relevant.</p>
<p>Isn't this a scientific attitude? And on this basis we are not
allowed to discuss e.g. the question of ether.<br>
