Length contraction is not a physical manifestation. Things do not change 
length.

This is easily proved by calculating the fields from a charged rod the 
is moving with constant linear motion. If one inserts the contracted 
length into the calculation the results obtained are wrong, both from 
Maxwell retardation calculations and also from the calculations of 
relativity. The resting length must be used.
