Are trying to be deliberately funny? Your not. You don't call something a "Factor" and then apply units to it. You certainly don't reduce units to some minor value then post this sort of trash.

I'm deliberately trying to make you think. You say that I can't call something a "Factor" and then apply units to it. You are claiming that you can take a number with units and make it into a factor by dropping the units. Why can you go one way, but not the other?
 
Herein lies your problem. You want to claim both frames are equal. They are not since one has accelerated more than the other and hence the muon is more dilated (remember we aren't looking at the illusions of motion during relative motion but the fact of accumulated time difference once the muon and earth are in a commom frame).

It is the muon that was dilated, not the earth and that is because the muon was ticking slower due to it's energy level subsequent to acceleration. Don't waste time telling me the muon was born with velocity and hence never accelerated. It was formed by a charged particle which had been accelerated and that momentum is carried forward at transition.

I'm trying to understand here. So to measure an object, we have to start with an inertial reference frame in which the object was not moving? And make all measurement wrt that inertial reference frame and no other?
 
Just as with your previous argument by authority, you overstate your case. Edward Allard was not involved in any way in the invention of infrared imaging. Infrared scopes were used as early as WWII.
To be fair to MacM, FLIR (forward looking infrared) is not strictly the infrared imaging developed in WWII. FLIR was developed in the 1970's.

MacM's "Dr. Edward Allard, a FLIR inventor and designer, formerly with the Army's Night Vision Laboratory" phrase seems to come here: Waco FLIR tapes. I would say that what it probably means is that Dr. Edward Allard is an inventor and designer in the field of FLIR.

Of course this is just a appeal to authority that happens to be fairly pathetic since Dr. Edward Allard just seems to provide a chapter on calculus. MacM may as well quote his high school math teacher.
 
Another stupid post.

I find it almost hilarious that purported self acclaimed scientist don't know what "Infered" is.

Shssh. "Foward Looking Infered "


Dr. Edward Allard, a FLIR inventor and designer, formerly with the Army's Night Vision Laboratory,

So "Infered" is infrared then?

:dl:

I swore I'd never use that dog, but there's really nothing else that expressing the utter hilariousness of the situation. If anyone ever needs a definition of irony, we can just refer them to MacM's post here.
 
Yes, I find your statement hilarious too.

Just as with your previous argument by authority, you overstate your case. Edward Allard was not involved in any way in the invention of infrared imaging. Infrared scopes were used as early as WWII.

Secondly, you aren't bringing anything to the argument.


I guess you either missed the FLIR aspect of my post or you don't know what it is. Otherwise your ost is BS.

Not just calculus dip but calculus as applied to the UniKEF view of gravity.:mad:

So you are saying that he was there in the 60s and 70s with the Army when FLIR systems were invented?

ETA: My bad, FLIR was invented by TI:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_Instruments#Infrared_systems

In 1956 TI began research on infrared technology that lead to several line scanner contracts and with the addition of a second scan mirror the invention of the first forward looking infrared (FLIR) in 1963 with production beginning in 1966. In 1972 TI invented the Common Module FLIR concept, greatly reducing cost and allowing reuse of common components.

Why are you :mad:?
All you have ever told us is the title of the chapter, i.e. "Calculus". The obvious assumption is that the chapter is about calculus.

Your use of the "appeal to authority" logical fallacy is still bad. Calculus is just calculus. It does not matter who applied it to a certain situation.

It would matter to me. If one of you math guys around here did it, I would feel fairly confident that the calculations were done correctly. If MacM did it, I would be worried since he seems to struggle in that area.

Of course, correctly solving equations presented in an ill-conceived theory is about as useful as the following correctly executed sentence:

My showering blouse chastises the rolling doughnut with rosy cheeks.
 
I found MacM's old website on the WayBackMachine. If anyone is interested, some of Allard's calculus is discussed and shown (hard to read) there.

ETA: And his old MSN group (http://web.archive.org/web/20050527063824/groups.msn.com/McCoinUniKEFTheory/home.htm) where he explains where GR and SR go wrong with such gems as, "The actual recording of time dilation of ONE clock is direct proof of the failure of Einstein's Relativity, not proof of it. GPS proves that the proper relativistic view is to use three, not two referances. By using three referances it is established if one observer actually has a higher absolute velocity and it eliminates the "Reciprocity" problem or reversability claims of SRT."

MacM,
You seem to have forgotten about the citation to the published data of a "4.28E-9 pertabation was measured by the Institute of Applied Geodesy, Frankfort West germany, Report #16."
All we know about it is:
...snip...
4 - For anyone actually looking they would find this work has been viewed by many. One prediction I made was that there would be measured a 4.2E-9 pertabation in gravity during a lunar eclipse. Guess what a 4.28E-9 pertabation was measured by the Institute of Applied Geodesy, Frankfort West germany, Report #16.

A copy of a letter granting me the right to publish my work citing their findings is in my historical documents. I've never published because I have continued to make changes over the years and the work is not ready for publication.

And:
The Institute detected the pertabation over 50 years ago. I sought their permission to show according to my view how that pertabation occured and referred to their work . I didn't have to have their permission but they gave it.

And that for some reason you cannot find any more current papers on a perturbation in any of the many lunar eclipses that have happened in the last "over 50 years".
Why did the Institute not follow up on their result? Could it be because it was easy to explain (maybe even in the original paper)?

Maybe you should ask for the paper from their successor organization: Bundesamt für Kartographie und Geodäsie.
 
"Infered" isn't a word. Spelling-wise, it's closest to "inferred", which makes no sense in this context. I actually suspected that you meant "infrared" (and yes, I know what it means), but I decided to make a joke because I think it's funny. Apparently your spelling is so bad you missed the joke because you didn't even realize you misspelled it. Which is funny too, actually.

Actually the most interesting aspect of your post is the expose' of your pathetic personality.

You find it more apporpriate to sit back poke fun at an old man perhaps just months left who's vision has started to blur, fingers have arthritis.

FYI: I have had substantial formal education in my time. I have done higher mathematics (but not lately). I used to type 65 wpm without any spelling errors.

At the moment and undercurrent conditions I really don't give a big crap about spelling, typo's, etc. All petty BS.

Your fixation on such things tells us a great deal about yourself. Have a nice day.

PS: Not looking for sympathy here just stick to issues and forget the cute ass stuff. It isn't actually cute.

Actually wise guy there have been numerous reports of mysterious recordings associtated with lunar eclipses. Particularily with respect to pendulums.

Why would I care about a more recent document when the 4.2E-9 prediction compared to a 4.28E-9 actual measurement already exists.

The joke wasn't even primarily about you. It was mostly just an excuse to make a reference to one of my favorite lines from a movie I really like. Don't take it personally, and learn to laugh at yourself a little. Nobody actually cares about your spelling, but you'll get more respect with less defensiveness.

PS: Not looking for sympathy here just stick to issues and forget the cute ass stuff. It isn't actually cute.

Then stop complaining about my joke and get back to the actual topic. Do your conversion with units. Prove me wrong. The calculations should be easy.

Then give us citations rather than unsupported assertions, wise guy.
And use your theory to match the "numerous reports of mysterious recordings associtated with lunar eclipses".

We still just have your word that one 50 year old observation exists that supports your prediction. How many observations since then say that there was a different value of the perturbation than you predicted?

We still do not have any details on what the observation actually was.

We still do know whether the observation was repeated. A single observation is merely interesting until it is confirmed.

We still do not have enough details to see if the authors had a simple explanation for the perturbation.

Was your prediction calculated in the 1950's or 1960's (before this one and only observation). Otherwise you may want to use the term retrodiction or postdiction.

Basically you are failing to convince anyone here that this observation even exists. Even if it exists, your failure to do the basic scientific research to look for confirmation of the observation in the last 50 years is confirmation of your low level of scientific competence.
Not that we need any given your dimensional analysis confusion :D.

To which I will add a statement of yours that does not seem to have been picked upon yet:
Logical assumption. E = mc^2 as the basis for the concept of energy vs mass form and the view that space is comprised of unbound free flowing energy (energetic 3D space).
A typical crank misunderstanding of physics where they think that energy is an actual thing or object. Energy is actually a property of a system (like entropy, charge, spin, etc.).

And yet another point: "concept of energy vs mass form" is meaningless.
E = mc^2 is the expression of mass-energy equivalence, i.e. that energy and mass are the same thing.
 
Seems you choose to ignore the qualifying words here "In 1972 TI invented the Common Module FLIR.

Dr Allard invented FLIR.

Read it again:

In 1956 TI began research on infrared technology that lead to several line scanner contracts and with the addition of a second scan mirror the invention of the first forward looking infrared (FLIR) in 1963 with production beginning in 1966. In 1972 TI invented the Common Module FLIR concept, greatly reducing cost and allowing reuse of common components.

I don't have any info from TI listing the engineers that invented FLIR, so Edward Allard could certainly be on that list, but I don't have any evidence that shows that.

Actually, MacM's claim is that Allard invented "Common Module" FLIR:

Seems you choose to ignore the qualifying words here "In 1972 TI invented the Common Module FLIR.

And apparently "Common Module" FLIR is a manufacturing technique, not a novel application of physics or a significant breakthrough in the underlying scientific principles.

In 1972 TI invented the Common Module FLIR concept, greatly reducing cost and allowing reuse of common components.
Which is actually pretty neat, I think.

Dr Allard invented FLIR.
Maybe so, but that's not what your evidence so far supports. Right now it's like you're claiming that Henry Ford invented the internal combustion engine, and pointing to his use of assembly lines as proof. Or claiming that Antec invented the integrated circuit, and pointing to their innovations in easy-to-maintain computer cases as proof.
 
Actually, MacM's claim is that Allard invented "Common Module" FLIR:

Actually, he's claiming that TI only invented "Common Module" FLIR and that the invention of FLIR lies with Edward Allard. Edward Allard certainly has made advancements in the field of infrared optics and related fields as well, but I don't think he was involved in the invention of FLIR as MacM's statements seem to imply.

I also find it interesting that these types of challenges are the ones that MacM is the most likely to engage in. I'd much rather he address:
