John, You are talking about clock time simultaneity which is well understood in relativity and which I accept and my theory is completely compatible with. Clock time simultaneity has nothing to do with the present moment which is an entirely separate type of time I call P-time. This is clear because observers with different clock time t values always inhabit the exact same present moment, the exact same moment of P-time which corresponds to the actual universal common present moment which is the only time in which reality exists.
The present moment is the most fundamental self-evident experience of our existence. And it is quite clear that all observers, no matter what their t values, all exist within this same P-time present moment. Edgar On Monday, December 23, 2013 2:10:13 PM UTC-5, Edgar L.
