Communication
The original and continued purpose of these pages is to
present an assessment of special relativity. This purpose has since been expanded to include all aspects of
science and philosophy. Readers who have opinions on the subjects are encouraged to submit them for posting
on the site. Dialogues that may ensue will also be posted provided they serve to highlight and explore
various aspects for the benefit of the correspondents and other readers.
Scientific Papers
The submisssion of papers on a variety of scientific subjects suggests a broader purpose for the site; the
opportunity for public presentation of theories, etc. without prior and arbitrary assessment, criticism or
rejection by the recipient.
Judgement by the few runs counter to the spirit of scientific exploration. The internet provides a potential
world of criticism and support. Authors who make their theories known in this manner will probably find both.
