    Potter--What is this "Galileo Effect" you a babbling about? I
    can't seem to find it in the literature.

    Well, I have been much less impressed by your "authority".
    What have you invented? Parroting doesn't equal understanding.

    And since you are starting to bark like dda1, I am afraid
    I must stop reading your posts too, as I don't want it
    to disturb me to the point that I would be in danger
    of starting to get rude and boorish myself.

    Not everything is handled by the geometrical equations of GR, e.g.
    there is
    "blueshift" that is predicted because of the "equivalance principle"
    (btw said "equivalence principle" actually makes for
    a bullet-proof twin-paradox, see http://www.mukesh.ws/grpdx1.html )

    Looking at the calculations for GPS, it appears there are multiple
    sources of the correction. It is not implausible that various
    sources were found/invented, as the data was discovered,
    to match the observations.

    Since no published paper appears to be available that
    PRE-dicted the actual correction prior to the data availability
    (and there is some indication apparently the initial prediction had
    the wrong sign, never mind the magnitude, and had to
    be "corrected" using other principles,) to me at this
    point it is entirely dismissable without further proof.

    Sam Wormley brings up a good point!

    The effect discovered by Galileo over 300 years ago,
    that oscillators are affected by acceleration,
    has been co-opted by the General Relativity Cult.

    It is also interesting to see that the "Hubble Effect",
    which Hubble discovered, indicates that
    the observed frequency of an oscillator is a function of distance
    has also been co-opt by the General Relativity Cult,
    and incorporated into their dogma, as has been the
    photoelectric effect which was discovered by
    Heinrich Hertz in 1887.

    I dare say that in time, the General Relativity Cult
    will also co-opt the piezo-electric effect,
    temperature effect, and all other effects,
    and claim that they were discovered and predicted by the
    General Relativity Cult's God.

    As can be seen by a reference
    often quoted by the General Relativity Cult,
    one of the General Relativity Cult Priest's
    uses 13 hacks (Co-opted effects) to General Relativity
    to account for the single Galileo effect.

    It seems to me,
    that credit should be given where credit is due,
    and folks like Galileo, Doppler, Hubble, Hertz, etc.
    should get credit for the effects they discover.

    I thought you ***PLONKED me***
    I suggest you are an idiot and a liar,

    and an immature clown
    who can't resist reading my posts.

    I will be looking forward to seeing you
    feature me on your web site.

  7. Ok now I'm going to killfile you to as it seems you are so closed
    minded you cannot see the nose in front of your face. You've been given
    the tools to see for yourself that the equations THAT PREDATE GPS work
    in the ways shown in various sources.

    How can GR corrections for GPS be invented when they predate it?

    Its obvious that you have an inherent distaste of GR, further
    complicated by your lack of understanding of it - of which you yourself
    have admitted.

    The Hubble effect is well known, but the "Galileo Effect", you
    you appear to be making up.

  11. Yet Potter is unable to cite where he published this alleged discovery.

    [...]
    And Potter still can't name even one of these so-called hacks.

    Tim posted:
    -----------------
    "Huh? Has relativity suddenly become controversial? "

    J. J. Lodder tried to make it a race/religion dichotomy.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Given the anti-scientific mood now prevalent in the USA
    that would not at all be surprising.

    It's Jewish science you know,
    and no doubt also a piece of liberal scheming
    to hide the truth.

    Tom Potter tossed race and religion back at J. J. Lodder.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Jan raises a good point.
    Jews are central to a lot of conflict and babble.

    Consider the Bible, Communism, Freudism, General Relativity,
    the Class Wars of the 1900's, the Religious Wars of the 2000's, etc.

    I wonder if this is a function of Nature (Genetics)
    or Nurture (Religion)?

    Jan also raises a good point when she suggests that where there
    is more heat than light, that the matter
    should be examined so liberals and conservatives,
    Christians, Jews or Muslims, etc.
    cannot "hide the truth".

    This would make a good subject for scientists to study.
    To see where babble and conflict come from,
    and what its' affects on society are.

    It would be interesting to start by making
    a top 100 "More heat than light" subject list.

    I suggest:
    1. The Bible.
    2. General Relativity
    3. Communism vs. free markets.
    4. Liberal vs conservative
    5. Action vs energy (As the unit of change)
    6. ..

    Please add your favorite "More heat than light" subject.

    Tim took another personal shot at Potter.
    (No doubt because I have exposed his ignorance of physics.)
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    How I wish that was a joke :-(
    Still, Mr. Potter is providing plenty of entertainment.

    ==========================

    End of quotes:

    As can be seen by the responses throughout society,
    when anyone suggests that General Relativity
    is a Tower of Babel,
    that generates more heat than light,
    and wastes time, money and minds on
    such pursuits as time travel, worm holes,
    gravitons, rubber clocks and rulers, etc.

    someone always tries to make it
    an anti-Semitic thing, and they attack the messenger,
    rather than address the message in a rational,
    intelligent, MORAL way.

    And as can be seen ,
    when I threw J. J. Lodder's race/religion biased response
    back in his face, and suggested that folks should
    make up a list of things that generate
    more heat than light,

    Tim, motivated by race and religion,
    or perhaps because I have exposed his ignorance of physics
    in the newsgroups, uses J. J. Lodder's post
    as an excuse to bushwhack.

    It appears that Tim is all bent out of shape,
    and is more motivated to bushwhack folks
    than he is to think about what things
    generate more heat than light.

    Hopefully J. J. Lodder will not let
    his race and religion co-opt his morality
    and rationality, and hopefully Tim will consider that
    things generate more heat than light,
    is more important to him and society
    than bushwhacking the folks who expose his ignorance.

    If truth, morality, and rationality are on the side of
    J. J. Lodder and Tim, they should be more than happy
    to present their cases, rather than trying to make the messenger
    the issue.

    I will be looking forward to seeing J. J. Lodder and Tim
    contribute their own lists of things that
    generate more heat than light,
    and discuss the issues in a rational, intelligent, MORAL way.

    I suggest that their lists and comments will
    provide plenty of "entertainment"
    for the readers in the newsgroups.

    What are these 13 hacks that you refer to Potter?

    Uh, THAT was the question, do the GR corrections
    really predate it, or have they been patched
    together after the fact?

    For instance, a major part of the GPS corrections are required because
    of Doppler effects -- a satellite in geosynchronous orbit is going
    FASTER than the ground beneath it.

    GR then takes this effect and changes it to be because
    of Gravitational Potential difference and Equivalence Principle.
    However, if the effect was due to Gravitational Potential, the
    Doppler effect would have to be ADDED to it. Because in ADDITION
    to being at a different Gravitational Potential, the
    satellite is still going faster.

    So the math and logic that says "GPS depends upon GR"
    is highly suspect.

  15. Yep - this is the post that killfiles you for sure

    GR doesn't change any effect - its cumulatative. SR, GR and doppler.

    That's exactly what I have been saying -- GR is malleable
    enough to accurately post-dict any observations, even if it
    takes decades. And when it comes to pre-dictions, there
    is always plenty of room for apologists.

    The "Doppler effect" as in GR calculations is "relativistic". It's
    used
    up as an adjustment to the GR correction. This is not the same as
    a calculation of Doppler effect without any reference to relativity
    (as a competitor to the GR calculations.)

    And theoretically, SR effects cannot be added to GR, as
    GR includes constancy.

    However, when you have to arrive at some given number,
    maybe it helped to be able to add and subtract various entities.

    Cretinoid, there is only one correct description of the Doppler effect
    for em waves , the relativistic one. You know, the one derived by
    Einstein in his 1905 paper.

    Mukesh Prasad, your daily dose of shit eating has reached record
    levels.
