Brent hasn't chosen to answer your question, but my guess would be he just means if you pick some specific event where part of the car is inside the garage, like the event A of the back of the car passing the garage entry door, in the garage frame the car is fully inside the garage "at the same time" as event A (using the garage frame definition of other events simultaneous with A), while in the car frame the front of the car is already well past the exit of the garage "at the same time" as event A (using the car frame definition of other events simultaneous with A). He obviously isn't disputing the notion that the two frames have different definitions of simultaneity since he made this point many times in his comments. Jesse I go by what he writes, not how someone interprets his words.

AG But you posted "They do happen at the same time as clearly shown on my diagrams. In the garage frame the entrance door closes before the exit door has to open. The car is in the garage for about 2.5 nano-seconds. In the car frame the doors are open at the same time so the car extends thru both." Please explain this apparent discrepancy. AG Gentleman's C.
