Professor Ereditato’s basic insight – that particles sent across differing longitudes can be technically speaking superluminal – was correct. This I showed in my paper on Lifeboat submitted to Science ( https://lifeboat.com/blog/2011/10/%E2%80%9Ctwo-percent-explained%E2%80%9D-cern-overlooked-that-simultaneity-is-non-global-on-rotating-earth ).
I regret the unscientific demand for clairvoyance-in-retrospect – not to have seen that the effect is technically smaller than claimed – which led to his resignation from “Opera” about which fact I learned today from a newspaper.
His enthusiasm and openness to the new is sorely needed by the scientific community. I would like to ask CERN to re-hire him. You cannot let your best man go.
As you may have seen from my last post, I am the only true supporter of CERN’s.
My asking for a safety conference is only meant to help them re-gain the justly admired high standard that the Internet is proof of every day.
Is asking for a safety-check really that horrible a suggestion to make to a scientific institution? Please, dear CERN, allow me to be your friend.
Apologizing can be the most honorable deed before the world. And you need not even apologize: just admit the safety conference before continuing.
Thank you.
