As I see it, there's a hard fact -- whether the car fits or not -- and I've shown that relativity gives contradictory answers. IMO, it's deceptive to formulate the problem in such way as to require disagreements about simultaneity to "resolve" the contradiction. BTW, I don't agree with Jesse, the physics allow for such ambiguities. AG -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
