So Mad Maciej doesn't understand metaphor.

First the autistic information engineer must define his terms. I asked him to do this and he still refuses: What is his definition of a day? What is the speed c/2 of the observer with respect to? He tried to turn the argument around referring to the quote from Heinlein, at which he failed miserably. He has dodged the pointed question about speed: "'Speed' in space is a curiously slippery term, as it is relative to whatever point you select as 'fixed' -- but the points in space are never fixed." -- Robert A.

First of all, no human being is trash, so Weird Wozzy doesn't really want an honest answer, which I already gave to him anyway: "[Heinlein] also said that deriving something was just finding out what you already knew. Meaning, of course, that it was all there in the original equations, implied, which is the case with relativistic velocity addition. As anyone would know if he weren't mathematically incompetent." Because of Wozzie's mathematical incompetence, he can't figure out that (1) relativistic velocity addition is DERIVED from the Lorentz transform equations. (2) "Lorentz's ETHER theory" has NOTHING to do with it because there is no ether*. So LET is a dead end. Dishonest Wozzie's attempt to insert that into his question was a red herring, a misleading fallacy. (3) The RVA equation is derived from the LT equations by dividing the equation for dx' by the equation for dt', so there is no "adding" to either LET or SR. *Ether theory is a dead end because SR took away the last vestige of any physicality: that of motion. IOW, it becomes fundamentally undetectable, which makes it nonexistent for all practical purposes.
