nice to see you are following me around. You do know that that is one of the definitions of a troll?

Does it really train you so much to come up with posts that arent idiotic nonsense?

it takes a form of mental illness to read the words 'I dont believe in the ether theory' and come up with 'I beleive in the ether theory'. perhaps prevailing isnt the only posters whose medication needs some help.

So obviously you didn't understand a word I wrote. That's hardly surprising from you longdope. Perhaps you could toddle off to a kindergarten and ask one of the other kids to explain it to you? You know, a smart person would have asked questions, gathered information tried to find an angle. The drooling troll would simply attack the other. Which are you longtroll?

Look, let me make it simple for you since you're obviously sitting there at the back of the nematode class. You said:

The ether theory was a ridiculous one - even then. A high School student could debunk it but it was accepted by physicists in a consensus form. and they were wrong - and obviously so.

So go ahead - let's see you perform at high school student level and debunk it. Don't bother cutting and pasting from wikipedia because I'll just laugh at you.

I mean, I'll laugh at you even louder and longer.

Couldn't find one eh? Or did you find one and still couldn't understand what the smack he was saying?

Yet again you shot your fat mouth off without having the faintest clue what you're talking about. As always. Is there anything that you are qualified in? Oh yes of course - lying! You've got a gold medal in that. And a silver in stupidity too I gather. Well done!

The ether theory? You mean the theory that all of space is filled with an insubstantial, invisible ether that is the medium of propagation for electromagnetic radiation? Yes I do. I learned about it all those years ago in high school. The question is do you know? Obviously not.

You obviously also haven't the first clue about science in general given that you claim that it is subject to some immutable "truth" that's written down somewhere in a book or something and isn't subject to consensus. Only someone completely ignorant of science such as yourself would ever make such a claim.

But then, that comes as no surprise. You're hardly the brightest bulb in the pack are you?

you must be EXCEEDINGLY old to have learned about ether in school since it was debunked in the 50s. And despite this debate you still seem to indicate that you believe in this theory. Is it possible that you have learned no new information since highschool 60 years ago?

Threads get derailed most times so this is nothing new. The question of 'ether' came up as an example of how 'consensus' among scientists is no alternative to getting it right. Consensus has often supported the wrong theory or policy. Nothing new here except for Gist who doesnt seem to get the argument and who apparently, still believes the ether theory.

Still haven't found a high school kid to explain it to you eh? Or are you still looking for a primary school kid to act as translator? Never mind.

Of course being a righty goldfish you have trouble remembering to the end of the sentence and you have the reading age of a preschooler so you can be forgiven for appearing terminally thick. Otherwise you'd remember that YOU raised the ether theory, YOU claimed that it was easily debunked by any high school kid and that when I asked you to go ahead and debunk it YOU FAILED.

I haven't said a thing about it either way.

And yes, I did learn about it. That doesn't make me particularly old, it simply makes me well educated because y'see they taught me about it when they taught me why it was wrong.

I could also point out to you that this was a second chance offered to you because you completely FAILED at the first task I gave you.

But then, you are a righty and therefore have the brains of a goldfish, as I said. You'll of course have forgotten about that by now which is why I remind you once again at the end of the sentence. You. Goldfish.

"Getting it right" Grin

What an ignorant thing to say. Please enlighten us. How do you know if a scientist has "got it right"? See if you can come up with anything this second time around seeing as you completely FAILED the first time.

You may need to find that primary school kid to help you before you go any further.

Your poor comprehension is only matched by your inability to clearly pose a question. now that you finally have done so, the ether theory was easily debunked by the speed of light being consistent in any direction whereas the ether theory would have demanded a differential. Easily disproved just as easily as working out that not every type of wave motion requires a medium.

See how easy that was? formulate a CLEAR question and you might get a clear answer.
