Using the coordinates in one inertial reference frame F0, the two objects crash into each other during the time in the problem. In the other inertial reference frame F1, the two objects always remain a fixed distance apart. The never crash. Both views cannot be correct.

Someone mention you have had this...problem for ten years...

is it possible you're dreaming
and everytime you wakeup
you're having the same dream?

and we are in your dream..
a dream where
"no one else has post the error"
dream?

It could be a nightmare you're having...

Certaintly would be a nightmare to me to have
a mathematically problem that 
"no one else has post the error"
for ten years.

I think it's time to
change your dream.

Take your formula
burn it up
and start a new dream..

it will end the nightmare
but there is no guarantee
you'll wake up.

It will be just a different dream.

Even Einstein made mistakes...

his unified theory never got finished..

that was his nightmare.

You were right 
with the first two words
of this subject heading..

How about a game of chess?
