Re-examine the deliberate glossing over of scientific fact? Hmm perhaps we could look at Lorentz and what he threw away to make his equations work? That's unlikely to occur, why throw out SR when you can keep chasing a fantasy for billions of dollars year. It is not in the best financial interest of the current pack of Space/Time theorists, String theorists, and CERN would like get a multi billion dollar black eye. Lets just wait for the "GOD" particle NOT be found and see what other absurd theory rises. I will never be able to stomach Quantuim mechanics or any other system that violates rules simply because of scalar effects. The whole of SR only applies to observation, it does not prove that changing your speed effects time, except in thought experiments, the twins theory is bogus, and cesium clocks have been proven to change rates when you change gravity, or rather the proximity to gravitational field center. Ether is consumed by mass, that's gravity, a pretty measurable effect in my book! Gamma is just a near final decay state of matter when run through a grinder such as a "Black hole" which is a simple either cyclone or what current flock refers to as "Dark Matter". I rant, and this will all come out soon anyway. And hey without peer reviewed materials none will take this seriously anyway, so why do I bother? just frustration I guess. Let time be the final judge... Gibson

The Michelson & Morley experiment did in fact detected an ether drift. Only smaller than expected, of around 8 km/s, instead of the expected 30 km/s. In a curious travesty of the scientific method, that fact was later taken as evidence for the inexistence of the ether... Read the Gezari paper Experimental Basis for Special Relativity in the Photon Sector <http://arxiv.org/abs/0912.3818> for a very good summary of the experiments and effects that supposedly confirm Special Relativity... The M. Consoli and E. Constanzo paper, The motion of the Solar System and the Michelson-Morley experiment <http://arxiv.org/abs/astro-ph/0311576> gives an impressive explanation for the divergences between observed vs. real velocities, which also accounts for the different experimental results obtained in different experiments, including the extensive and careful experiments done by Miller. The proposed explanation belongs originally to Cahill and Kitto, and its consequences are mind boggling, if you take the care and time to reflect about them. All this is published since at least five years in the arxiv. Maybe it's time to start taking notice.
