So there is no paradox, just a strange situation. If my answer does not satisfy you may I suggest this, ask your question to Claude <https://claude.ai/new> , he is infinitely patient, is never insulting, is very knowledgeable and is pretty smart. * *John K Clark See what's on my new list at Extropolis <https://groups.google.com/g/extropolis>* *If Brent is right that fitting and not filtting occur at the same, then you and Claude are mistaken about what the simultaneity argument shows.

Quentin doesn't believe I did. What do you say? AG More important is this: if fitting and not fitting do not happen at the same time, how does this resolve the paradox?. Presumably, these events could happen at different times. Does this mean we're out of the woods on SR?
