Do not foist the impact of your feelings of inferiority onto me. If you 
have a complex about feeling inferior, this is yours to deal with, 
rather than to blame it on others.

You asked if we should talk about electrodynamics or thermodynamics. So 
I started talking about them. I asked you a question to see if you knew 
something about either one. Perhaps, rather than me asking you a 
question about thermodynamics or electrodynamics, you should start by 
telling me something you know about electrodynamics or thermodynamics.

You see, knowing even a little bit about a subject is usually important 
to say something useful about it. The same goes with relativity. You've 
already demonstrated, through your ignorance of the experimental 
results, that you know next to nothing about relativity, and yet you 
constantly want to talk about it. It mystifies me why you would want to 
talk about a subject you know nothing about.

I had hopes that you might know a little more about thermodynamics or 
electrodynamics than you do about relativity, and this is why you 
prompted a conversation about them. So then, Robert, what about these 
subjects do you know?
