Giving up, Koobee? :-)

Your surrender graciously accepted.

Right....SR predicts that the passage of an interval of clock time on
the B clock corresponds to the passage of a lesser interval of clock
time on the A clock....that means that the B clock is running slower
than the A clock.
Delta(T_B)=gamma[Delta(T_A)]

The problem is: Sr predicts the same for an observer on B.

Why is B1 and B2 moving past A...why not A moving past B1 and B2 ???

So you are assuming that the B clocks are doing the moving while A
remains stationary....right?

This is a bogus assumption based on the faulty SR math that all clocks
moving wrt the observer (A or B) are running slow.

This is wrong....B is the observer and B1 and B2 are in sych in the B
frame. Therefore B must predict that A is running fast as follows:
Delta(T_A)=Delta(T_B)/gamma

Aww geez, it's over? I just popped more popcorn.

Geez, you've been kooking in here for 15 years now but still don't
understand the basic fundamentals of relativity? All inertial frames
in SR have the same math, so of course an observer in A's frame can
do measurements with B1 and B2 moving past A by assuming A is stationary.

All motion is relative, so of course A will see the B clocks as moving.
(and yes, an observer in B will see the A clocks as moving, but that
was already discussed as the first gedanken, so it's not relevant here)

You got to keep the A and B frames separate. This is where you always
get mixed up.

No, just do the logic that was just shown to you!

But not the A frame. And that is the point.
From: Koobee Wublee on
For the record, Koobee Wublee was explaining how the Lorentz transform
actually predicts both blue and red shift at the same time. See the
post below.

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.physics.relativity/msg/c4d248370bde9eee?hl=en

Suddenly, professor Andersen, out of the blue, changed the discussion
with this post without addressing Koobee Wublee’s previous post.

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.physics.relativity/msg/077983367e3fe36a?hl=en

Koobee Wublee, an ever so humble, good Samaritan, answered professor
Andersen’s questions fair and square. The good hearted Koobee Wublee
saw the same mistakes and garbage that professor Andersen had
defecated all over these newsgroups in the past few years and decided
not to press any further charges. See the post below.

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.physics.relativity/msg/59b3d0dcb8deab2d?hl=en

Seeing himself checkmated once again, professor Andersen decided to
behave childish and defiant with the following useless post.

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.physics.relativity/msg/29d192787e693974?hl=en

The good hearted and ever so humble Koobee Wublee tried once again to
reach out to save professor Andersen from drowning in his cesspool of
fermented diarrhea of Einstein the nitwit, the plagiarist, and the
liar with the following post. In doing so, Koobee Wublee even showed
professor Andersen what a mathematical model of Doppler effect would
look like and guided with hints on how to arrive with that.

http://groups.google.com/group/sci.physics.relativity/msg/22d990f50ede9754?hl=en

The asinine professor Andersen then refused to discuss any further by
repeating the same bullshit from the very beginning. Professor
Andersen is indeed a very small man.
