Well... This isn't quite true. First of all, no scientific theory is ever truly "proven". It can amass sufficient evidence that it is considered as fact by the scientific world, but it is never "proven". Also, Einstein's theory of relativity is a little more complicated than you're making it. What it actually says is that time must be treated as another dimension like the three we know, and that it is meaningless to say that it is the same time at two different points in the universe. In fact it's meaningless to talk about the passage of time at all in Einstein's theory.
so, what i'm about to say isn't at all argumentative, I'm simply explaining myself.....the word "proven" just suggests that what's being talked about, through observation of events, has been found to be a reality - NASA deliberately offesets the clocks in their satilites to make up for the lag the clocks will have due to their high speeds..If they DIDN'T do this, the clocks would lag behind, and lose sync w/the the relatively stationary clocks back on earth...this, along w/many other things, proves that time is slower for an object in relation to another if it is moving faster than it...&, about eintstein's theory stating that it's meaningless to discuss time, I was simply using what he & others have found, to support a train of thought that I was on, regardless of whether he thinks time is important or not...ok I'm done
Oh, I knew what you meant. I was just being perverse. I just wanted to point out that the theory of relativity is a lot crazier than even you made it sound.
well of course, the stuff I mentioned here was, at the very most the tip of an ice burg - but I wanted to keep the peoples interest!..lol, pulling a steven hawking & writing a novel might have made ian weary as to whether he should even approve the story or not
im a bit confused by all this, but very interested, i say we should have a class on this... soo cool!
yes, we WILL have a class on this subject, every tuesday & thrusday night @ 7:30!..I'm starting a time travelers club in my basement!!!...ezabel's funding it, and it's efforts to ulitmately build a time machine out of household products!...if we mix just the right amount of Lemon Joy, granolla, bathroom air freshner and bleach, we MIGHT just be able to tap into the quantum fabric of space-time...or cause a chemical reaction that'd create fumes we would all end up dying from inhalling...but hey!!.it's all in the name of science!!..people die all the time, it's no biggie
hmmm you've picked some odd times to hold your classes
shhh!!!!!!!.....
Yes! I can make both of those classes weekly.
