LOL
With enough power they do dingleberry.
You truly are lost.

If you had any clue about such you would know that with
enough power, glass even becomes electrified.
You are a dingleberry with no hope of following real science
anymore.

Ya OK,
That is why they take longer to travel down fibre optics
than they do in air.
You are a moron.
Get a clue some year.

No,
It is fact about distances being traveled and time it takes
to travel them.
Light travels slower in certain mediums.
Apparently you love to remain brainwashed and clueless.
I feel sorry for you.

Why bother with sats?
I already gave an experiment in the sci.physics group
that proves light is not constant to all and it is very simple
to setup.

I am trying to get you into the 21st century where people
with brains know that "lightspeed" is relative, and only constant
to "at rest" frames.
I see you don't want to jump into the future yet.
You poor thing.

As I said,
Please show me the quasar that is moving away from us at
90%% of c.
I never heard of such a find.
I think they have goofed up badly on that one.

No,
I actually showed my teacher problems with Special Relativity
and passed all my science classes with A+'s
And if you actually thought on your own you would be
able to understand what I am saying.
But i see you can not comprehend anythign except your
own brainwashing anymore.
