You're looking for a cause, as if something happens to the clocks. 
That's not the way of it. It's just that their respective frames get 
projected differently onto the frame of an observer.

I know the cause already. Einstein's insanity!

Time has no 'frame'.

Why don't you check how Einstein deduced his RoS and clock synch nonsense.

He claimed the moving clocks were out of synch because they measured 
OWLS to be c+v. It WAS c+v...and the man was a conartist.

The observer has a frame which is just the coordinate system he's using.

No observers are involved. Light moves at different speeds from the
accelerating source, causing later light to encroach on earlier light.
That is observed and is the cause of most apparent star brightness 
variability.
If you wont accept observational evidence, there is no hope for you.

You obviously have not. Otherwise you would know that his RoS derivation 
is fundamentally flawed. Einstein claimed the moving clocks were out of 
synch because they would measure OWLS of light emitted at c in the 
stationary frame to be c+v in their moving frame.
It bloody obviously WAS c+v.

And if the synchronization is broken - You can assume
it's Your time dilation (if You are a follower of Your 
Great Guru) or You can assume they are not precise
(if You are a sane, thinking person).

Absolute simultaneity of two events A and B is measured by an observer who is at rest and at equal distance from A and B. No other observer who is moving wrt A and B is qualified to judge the absolute simultaneity of A and B. The observer who does the measurement can use the LT to inform other moving observer that A and B are absolutely simultaneous.

Ken, let's get something clear. What you are saying is that there is 
only one observer that can determine whether two events are simultaneous 
and that everyone else has to just be informed by this one observer.

In contrast, here is what "absolute simultaneity" means. What the 
"absolute" means there is that this can be checked by ANY observer 
independently and the result will be the same. Thus for you to have any 
claim that "absolute simultaneity" even exists, this has to be put to 
experimental test by MULTIPLE OBSERVERS, not just one. One observer 
cannot determine whether simultaneity is absolute, by definition of 
"absolute simultaneity".

Henry Wilson makes the same mistake by declaring that length can only be 
measured by an observer at rest relative to the measured object. This 
cannot be an absolute length, because for it to be an absolute length, 
the same value would have to be arrived at by ALL observers.

That's right....in order to determine absolute simultaneity the observer must be at equal distance from the events......that means that any observer who is moving wrt the events is not qualified to determine the absolute simultaneity of A and B because he is not at equal distance from A and B at any time.

It can be checked by multiple observers if they all are at different equal distances from the two absolutely simultaneous events.

Sigh....a meter stick is 1 meter long as measure by all observers.

Regardless of whether it is necessary or not, 
it is not sufficient.

Not good enough. This is a small class of observers, and they all have 
relative speed zero with respect to each other. For a property to be 
declared absolute, it must be observable and have the same value for ALL 
inertial observers. That's what "absolute simultaneity" means.

Not so. It is not 1 meter long for any observer moving relative to the 
stick.

Again, when you use the term "absolute length", this is something that 
has to be confirmed by measurement by ALL inertial observers, including 
those moving relative to the object.

And, as the number of inertial observers is - 0, 
simulteneity is obviously absolute.

Idiot....any observer (inertial or not) who is moving wrt the events are not qualified to measure the simultaneity of the two events. Why? Because he was never at equal distance from the two events. What this mean is that any observer (inertial or not) moving wrt the events is not qualified to measure the absolute simultaneity of two events in different frames.

Its material length is 1 meter long for any observer moving wrt the stick. its light-path length is 1/gamma meter long. Example : your material length and your light-path length when you are standing next to me is 6 ft tall. You move away from me at v, your material length remains the same but your light-path length is shortened by a factor of 1/gamma.

Yeah....bring the meter stick back and it will measure 1 meter long.

Then you can't call it absolute simultaneity, because the term MEANS 
that the simultaneity is confirmable by all inertial observers. Since 
you say this is impossible, then the simultaneity cannot be called 
absolute simultaneity, Ken.

Sure I can.....the locations of the two events are at equal distance from me and the signal of the two events arrive at me simultaneously....by definition that's absolute simultaneity.

I have no interest in your geometric projection. Also what I said does not give rise to paradoxes.

No, Ken, that's just simultaneity as established by ONE observer, not 
absolute simultaneity. Absolute simultaneity, by definition, means that 
ALL inertial observers would measure those events to be simultaneous.

If you don't know what "absolute simultaneity" means, then don't use the 
term.

If you have no interest in geometric projection, then do not attempt to 
describe what SR says, because SR is about the thing you say you're not 
interested in.

There are no logical contradictions in relativity. The "paradoxes" are 
NOT logical contradictions.

Idiot....your definition means that no pair of events in our universe can be in a state of absolute simultaneity. That means that the speed of light can't be isotropic in any inertial frame.

It appears that it is you who don't know what absolute simultaneity means.

It's not MY definition. It is the accepted scientific definition.
By the way, scientists also do not agree with your claim that 
simultaneity can ONLY be determined by someone midway between the 
events. That is CERTAINLY not what Einstein said, either. So scientists 
would look at your claim and laugh.

But it is true that scientists do say that absolute simultaneity simply 
does not exist.

> That means that the speed of light can't be isotropic in any inertial frame.

Nonsense. Absence of absolute simultaneity is DERIVED FROM the isotropy 
of the speed of light. There is no possible way that absence of absolute 
simultaneity would imply that light can't be isotropic in an inertial frame.

Sorry, Ken, this isn't between you and me. It's between what SCIENTISTS 
have written and what you say. And in that matchup, you lose.
