30 June 2003:  On this 98th anniversary of the receipt of Einstein's first relativity paper at the Annalen der Physik, here's a good article (from 6/24/03 NYT Science Times section)  on how Einstein made his crucial interpretation of the meaning of simultaneity. His job at the patent office turned out to be crucial to his crucial interpretation.  You can be relatively sure, however, that one of these days there will be a new interpretation of the relativity of simultaneity.
"The Binding Energy of the Classical Electron," my 1998 MS thesis at Southwest Texas State University, which is now Texas State U.-San Marcos (click on chapters below). This is still the "math-free" version (the equations didn't upload to the Web), and doesn't include the first few pages--the acknowledgements,  dedication page and table of contents.  I no longer have the diskette with those on it, and don't have printed copies either.    To view the quotations I used at the beginning of the thesis, click here.

Relativity is the currently accepted methodology for finding universal laws of physics. I recently wrote a short personal article for the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette on the history and philosophical confusion surrounding the subject.
