Yes, that is what I just said.

Utter nonsense.  Go outside at night, pick any star in the sky, note down 
its coordinates in the celestial grid of your least distrust, and measure 
the time it takes for that star to be seen at the same position again the 
next night (weather permitting).

They are not that, but the proper Unicode characters.  Unicode is a standard 
since 1991, and a requirement to be supported by newsreaders since November 
2009 (see RFC 5536, §2.3).  Google Groups, which you are using, can display 
it (as it runs in Web browsers), current and even not so current operating 
systems, desktop environments and font faces can handle it; so I see no 
reason to use replacement syntax in order to prove you wrong.

And as a person who not only writes nonsensical formulas but also neglects 
to write indices in an unambiguous way in the process, you should be *very* 
slow to criticize the style of others’ equations.
 
You have still neither considered nor answered the simple questions about 
the relativity of motion that I posed to you.  Instead, you keep avoiding
to address all counter-arguments and evidence that refute what you have 
said, by attempting to create distraction with sideshows: first the solar 
cycle, then your wrong idea of “relativistic speed”, now the format of the 
equations; insults in-between.  This is, of course, typical crackpot 
tactics, and, having been around here for quite a while, I am not going to 
fall for it.  So you can skip that just as well.
