Why should we be? Are you thick? We have following Arindam said clearly
that as the Earth moves, light speed has to be variant as the nulls in
MMX could not happen otherwise. The foolish or sinister physicists have
either not thought of or ignored the fact that the Earth's movement
would cause light to move more or less between any two points on the
moving Earth.

Light speed would be invariant as per MMX if the Earth did not move in
space as the Aristotle model has it.

We have following Arindam said clearly that as the Earth moves, light
speed has to be variant as the nulls in MMX could not happen otherwise.
The foolish or sinister physicists have either not thought of or ignored
the fact that the Earth's movement would cause light to move more or
less between any two points on the moving Earth.

However the big daddy of them all, the MMX, clearly shows that the light
speed is variant as the Earth moves. If the fact that light moves a
greater or lesser distance between two points on the moving Earth is
ignored, the experiments will start off with a false basis.  So nothing
true will come from such an horrendous bungle.

It is never invariant. It is always variant for all objects in the
universe move with respect to the common static medium, that is aum or
aether.

The speed of light will always APPEAR to be invariant in an experiment
like MMX whereas it is variant. Making APPEARANCE reality, on the
unscientific subjective basis, is the constitution of Einsteinian
pseudo-physics.

That light speed is variant is clearly shown from the Doppler effect,
like radar or redshift and blueshift in the stars as the go away or come
near.

Aether does not move. The speed of light from a plane flying at speed v
to a radar on the ground is c+v.

Well, we cannot answer to all as promptly as we might wish. Lots of
other things to do, what.

It cannot be invariant, it will always be variant. However on Earth we
may measure the speed as c following the usual methods. Also, Maxwell's
equations provide a value for c, which match experimental values.

Invariant means that the speed does not depend upon the speed of the
emitter, in this case.
Actually it does, as redshift and blueshift shows, and the Doppler radar
effect.
However we cannot find the speed of the moving Earth (or aether drift as
they called it) as it is just not possible. The light speed variance
nicely cuts out the extra plus or minus distances travelled.

This is rather subtle, so requires some deep thinking. Also, it is not
easy to give up on programming and brainwashing done by the
establishment for well over a century now.
