Regardless of how long or short the car is or how long or short the garage is or how fast or slow an observer is moving EVERYBODY will agree that there was a time when the back of the car entered the front of the garage, and everybody will agree there was a time when the front of the car left the back of the garage, and everybody will agree there was a time where both of the doors on the garage were closed, BUT they will disagree if those three events occurred simultaneously. Those who think they were simultaneous events will conclude that the car fit in the garage, and those who think the events were not simultaneous will conclude that the car did not fit in the garage. * *John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis>* 8ys -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
