I didn't say it was about debate. I said it was non conducive to the spirit of debate.
Furthermore, I rarely post 'incorrect' stuff, as whenever I speak about something, I speak from a theoretical standpoint, where I am academically disassociated from what I am discussing. If we take time dilation, for example, nothing I have posted, is 'incorrect' about it. As all I have said, is the suggestion that it 'may' be wrong, due to it firstly being a theory, and secondly having insufficient evidence to convince me (But I shall be investigating that Ives exp).
People will often say that I am wrong when I deny there is 'proof' of time dilation. Of course, it is 'they' who are wrong, because there is no proof, there is only evidence. The difference between them and me, is that I understand the difference between proof and evidence, as well as between fact and theory, whilst they do not.

As to an "eye for an eye", this shows that you are taking feedback personally. This way you will never escape the state of "crank" and you will never learn. When people give you a negative feedback, you should try to make efforts to learn, announcing proudly that you are a "crank" doesn't make you a better person.
Of course one takes feedback personally, because negative feedback is generally highly critical, usually in an exaggerated sense. The retort neg feedback is necessary to restore one's integrity, because otherwise it will seem as though what they say in your negative feedback, is correct and that you do not deny it.
I learn perfectly fine, whilst still having what some might consider 'crank' theories. What you actually mean (Reading between the lines), is that "I will never learn" aka. I will never accept something that you believe as true, to be true.
The difference, as noted above, hence between myself and you, Dallas, is that I am able to maintain a balanced and objective view towards such topics as time dilation, whilst you seem to have accepted it completely, almost to the point of fanaticism. Whilst I am trying here, vainly, to try and convince you, just like I try to convince others, that time dilation is still a theory, and there is still the possibility that it may be wrong, and that something you didn't consider, is to blame.
If you do not learn to academically disassociate yourself with theories, then you will never truly be a scientist, because you will always find yourself rejecting anything which contradicts with your unshakeable beliefs in a particular theory, when all the while, what you are believing, may be wrong, whilst something that you would otherwise consider a 'crank' theory, may actually be right.
So in regards to time dilation, you need to disassociate yourself with any 'full acceptance' of it, and learn to acknowledge other theories which attempt to explain the phenomenon of loss of time. Because it would be supremely funny, if in a month's time or so, it was discovered that there was a totally different reason for it, than you currently believe. I, for one, would laugh a heck of alot at you, for embracing it so hard. Realise that if you were academically disassociated from it, that such damage would be minimal.
So for the prospect of laughing at you, I do indeed hope that time dilation has a different reason than you believe. Man, you will never hear the end of it from me; such is the fallout from your unshakeable acceptance of time dilation.

I personally don't choose by what someone has said to me normally. I tend to just look at those who deserve it for their information that is shared correctly.

For the record...
Myself and a friend of mine came up with both of these ideas while sitting in an A&W. I'd been in contact with Evident Technologies regarding a novel design for their thermal junctions, and they sent me back a paper on solar cells. We sent them back the suggestion for this exact technology two summers ago. I still have the emails on record.
Team sets solar cell recordThe same email also covered this manufacturing method:
Researchers develop inexpensive, easy process to produce solar panelsFor those of you who can't be bothered to click the link, one is for a method of splitting light into different wavelengths for absorbtion by a gratzel solar cell, which uses different bandgap semiconductors to absorb the different wavelengths.
The other is for a manufacturing process for solar cells that would allow them to be printed by machines resembling computer printers, where the individual ink tanks carry different quantum dots (What Evident Technologies manufactures) allowing them to be printed directly on a substrate and heat sealed to create active circuits.
I've even still got the original A&W placemats we drew out the designs on.
Maybe I'll put them up on *** ebay.

Very Very impressive the unification of physics by AWT:
QUOTE
Why do you mean this? Such insight follows from Aether concept immediately. The more dense environment is, the slower is the speed of energy wave spreading.
We are all waiting for a simplified theory of Semiconductor Optics, based on AWT.
Everything forllow immediately from the AWT concept.
Appalling.

ACT just predicted and indirectly produced two of the most significant advances in the history of solar cell production.
Cheap manufacturing and a 2% increase in efficency in the already high efficency gratzel cells.
W00T!
The cranks win the day!
