I would appreciate it if someone pointed out my error. Your first mistake is...Acceleration is not often considered in special relativity. For example...if i'm driving my car eventually it will run out of gas. That is why you get conflicting results. You ran out of gas. -- The Starmaker -- To question the unquestionable, ask the unaskable, to think the unthinkable, mention the unmentionable, say the unsayable, and challenge the unchallengeable.
