BTW your thought experiments are generally just fine.
I've posted my support for them at times, right?

Right. And I saw them. I appreciate your support. (Though it was for the truth,
as you saw it, and not for me. Which is as it should be.)


I find the whole situation quite instructive. Formal cites have
been given, which can be resolved with a trip to any number
of libraries. People argue on, regardless.

That's what I was griping about.

The pro-Doppler explanations are almost certainly correct. But no one seems to
be paying them much attention, or incisively refuting them. It's like explaining
that something is impossible because it violates the law of energy conservation,
but people keep arguing.


In short, people seem to be a lot more enthusiastic about writing than
reading. That seems to have the same effect as speaking instead of
listening.

Absatively.


It seems like I'm the only one in this group with ready access to the JAES
which may be understandable. But Halliday and Resnick should be in a jillion
different libraries.

Mine's somewhere in my library.


There don't seem to be a lot of people here who have
actually taken first year college physics, it seems.

Or understood it. I have an above-Mensa IQ, but I had to take physics several
times (ar, ar) before I really started "understanding" it. (Maybe.)
