The link in post 95 shows that E-synch is conventional, so, falsifying it would not falsify SR, contrary to your claims. In fact, experimentalists...

This is not what I am saying, you can't even quote me correctly. Good, because this is the standard way OWLS anisotropy is constrained....

If there was a way of measuring RoS, that would prove the RMS theory false. Since "There is no experiment that could prove that theory false", you...

You obviously do not understand the difference between measuring OWLS (experimentally impossible) and proving that OWLS is isotropic (routinely done...

Let's try again: There is a very large tests that constrain light speed anisotropy, thus effectively constraining OWLS to be equal to TWLS. This is...

Almost correct, the correct sentence is: Given two space-like separated events, there is no way to measure their time separation. Theory precludes...

The above calculation is incorrect. Here is the correct calculation: T'_A=\gamma(t_A+\frac{vx_G}{c^2}) T'_B=\gamma(t_B+\frac{vx_G}{c^2}) where...

I have already pointed out the mistakes you have made in the "eram experiment". Correct application of SR demonstrates that the RoS in "eram's...

The function f(x)=e lnx -x has a maximum f(e)=0 in x=e, so lnx \le \frac{x}{e} \forall x \in \mathbb{R}^{\tiny +}.
