Stephen,

The LT equations involve ONE dimension only, right? But where are the
observers of the rockets who are doing the "mathemagic"? They are
looking from the SIDE; ie, another dimension. Do you really think that
such blatantly mistaken views can "explain" SR?
For SR observations to be taken seriously, the observer must be in the
line of velocity of all events and objects being discussed, AT ALL
TIMES.....
So there is your eye, with an arrow coming at it. Although the arrow
is 300,000kms long, if it is travelling close to c, according to SR,
head and feathers of arrow must hit eye within interval greatly less
than one second, as the arrow has "shrunk".................
Androcles is correct in asserting that you are hitting your head on a
brick wall to try to convert DHR's---- they can't even see the
ridiculousness of using one dimensional formula in a planer situation.
