SR Issue Split

Let's keep it simple. The following is in the OP.

When C' and M are co-located, SR claims the lightning is located at M' frame space-time coordinates of $$(d',0,0,d'/c)$$ based on the M' frame light postulate. So, this cannot be disputed.

However, also when C' and M are co-located, by the M frame light postulate and an application of LT, the lightning is located at M' frame space-time coordinates of $$(d'(1-v/c),0,0,d'(1-v/c)/c)$$.

Lightning cannot be at 2 different positive x-axis locations at the co-location event of C' and M.

That is the issue.
prove it.
 
The issue is as it always is.
You are claiming SR is wrong. You are wrong now, as you have been countless times in the past.
Now you prove it.
You cant.

Simply indicate the error in the reasoning of my post if you can. If you can't please stop trolling.

I'm not trolling. I'm asking you a couple of questions in relation to SR, that you find painful to answer that is all.
The prime question is, Are you effectively saying SR is wrong?
If so, you are in the wrong thread. So why not be up front, truthful and answer that question?
I wont get into your past record, but I will get into why you refuse to take notice of two posters that have falsified your obvious claim.
Why do you repeatedly refuse to answer them, and instead just repeat that tired old "prove it" line, that is impressing no one.
Are you a "God botherer" of some sort?
Is this why you continually rant against SR? Because it somehow offends your deity of choice?
All deities are just figments of people's Imaginations and ancient myths.

It is interesting that of all the people in the world there is only a couple of forums with few dozen people who are interested to talk about stuff like this, and it is even more peculiar for majority of them it is not about seeking the truth, but about vanity and channeling frustration. In the light of that, I'm afraid the hope that forum conversation can lead to any kind of satisfying resolution is naive. And even if you manage to reach some agreement, even if you manage to convince anyone of anything, it will be forgotten in a matter of days and the time invested will be left out to rot in the old posts graveyard. The answer? Remove the brain from your head and enjoy blissful ignorance with the rest of the zombies. Don't use brains, eat them!
 
I didn't make an error, two observers can see the same event occur at different times, even though they agree on where it occured. So you haven't corrected anything.
The only possible way both observers can agree on a "definition of when" is if they compare clocks, that is, they must (be able to) communicate with each other.
No, you refuse to accept his answer. If I do the same amount of work rpenner did answering your repeated question, is it safe to assume you will refuse to accept it as well?
If I type out an example from a textbook, will you refuse to accept that? Is there a book anywhere on earth that answers your question? It must be hard denying that such a thing could exist.

So, tell me why I or anyone should bother with someone who is clearly delusional?

OK, you and rpenner can't answer the simple question, where is the lightning on the positive x-axis when C' and M are co-located.

Do I have that you can't answer this? Otherwise, answer it.

Not sure why you think your opinion is God-like.

Answer, where is the lightning in the M' frame along the positive x-axis when C' and M are co-located.

I'm on your side, if you haven't noticed. Just saying you should ignore the trolls and don't expect to achieve much out of the forum conversation.

As for the answer, I could solve the problem with plain classical physics if you can think of the way how to actually test it and confirm the result. Theories can not prove theories, I can only prove a theory related to actual experiment and actual measurements. If you have those, I'd be delighted to demonstrate my amazing godly powers.

amusing.
i seriously doubt you even understand any of this,
let alone conceive it in your head.
very amusing.

Shhh. Bored and purposeless, eh? You can't even properly format a sentence. Why would I or anyone else even talk to 14 year old kid like yourself?
