BTW, this is just classic special relativity, it's not some new fangled theory or academic paper just published.

It was proposed 104 years ago by Einstein. Look up special relativity. ... ;). Also read about time dilation and Lorentz transformations. Does anyone read the comments on here? LOL

You really need to read up on Modern Physics... or perhaps even mechanical physics. If the speed of light is a constant, even given that it is projected from moving reference frame, and doesn't posses the velocity of C + speed_of_reference frame, then indeed distance or time must "give".

Please think about this further. Ball thrown on a train in direction of velocity of train, would appear to be going: speed_of_ball + speed_of_train, to a "stationary" observer.

Light does not..!

look up whitehead, I think he did something similar to what your asking

Why don't you study the Lorentz equations? There is no way for sure to tell if there could be yet another variable to this equation. But if you study the current model of the system it will give you more insight. Think Galilean invariance, Lorentz is an extension of this (example of "adding variables" etc).

Also take "Modern Physics" at your university this would really help. (No I don't mean Phys1 and 2, these are prerequisites, that don't touch on the more advanced topics).

You're confusing time zones with time itself. If you live in a country that switches from imperial to metric system your height and mass stay the same, it's just the numbers used to express them that are different.

Do not confuse the arbitrary unit used to measure the property with the property itself. Time exists independently of the unit or system humans use to measure it.

Although our measurement of time is created, I don't believe time itself is fake. To travel in time is more a metaphor as to say to travel through the thing we have come to agree as time. The word time itself is relevant only to our society of mankind. And for those who believe time travel to be far fetched, a space shuttle can revolve round earth opposite to its rotation thus traveling back in the reality we know as time, thus "time traveling".

A good subject you bring up. Time being a dimension, if it is a complete falsehood created by man, does the remaining dimensions become the same reality?

Nohting has to give, where does this guy get this idea from. There is no theoretical or other reason why anything must give. Light only travels because it is absorbed by matter and is shown as a reflective beam. Never mind what would happen to the human body when it would encounter such a velocity. Time travel is an absurd proposition in terms of it being within our grasp. Time travel, time reduction, time folding, all a bunch of ridiculous unscientific psychobable bordering on insanity.

Luckily the library here at TAMU contained 'A Brief History of Time' and i took you up on your offer and read it. Made everything much more clear and has given me a more informed perception. Oh, and thanks for the good read BTW.
