The Earth does not have an absolute speed...but if it did, I have described a way to measure it. > Well done, fully qualified experimental physicist Doctor Henry! :-D Paul yet again misses the point...as he always does these days...he is very old now...I'll miss him when he has gone.... My intention was simple and straightforward. It was to show that if an aether exists, there are mechanical ways to detect it even if that is impossible when using light. --
