Very good, other than the crowing. Units of measure must not dilate to serve as a standard. If all rates of change were to change in unison, time could conceivably change. If it does not include all rates of change, it is not time itself. Nothing can cause all rates of change to change in unison, especially not relative motion per se, as relativity claims. The same goes for length contraction. Space does not curve because it has no substance. By accepting the LT, relativists implicitly embrace the ether. Time dilation and length contraction are part of the LT, which is superfluous without an ether. Einstein should have followed his own advice. It is harmful to make questioning alleged proofs a heresy. Doing so would just make those "proofs" a religion. Those who live by the sword die by it.
