Why are you calling me an idiot, when I am doing GPS every day etc. GPS is 
pure software engineering. What is been said for years, you realize just 
now, that there are indeed NO relativistic corrections done at the level 
of SV segment (space vehicle, the satellite). Paul Bullshit Andersen is 
perfectly correct, there are offsets due to various DRIFTS, so the 
subtraction would be PRESENT in any case, Relativity concerns or not, from 
an Engineering software implementation. End of story, live with it.

Cut the crap, various drifts are there, inspite of relativity, existent or 
not. Koobee Woobee said from the beginning that is a software concern.

Yes, proofably you are, not knowing how the engineering stuff is done in 
the field.

Assume no Relativity Effects takes place. Same algorithms and module would 
be used. Unchanged from what is actually used TODAY.

Hopefully you just got a lesson in GPS you never gonna forget.
