All Einsteinians, both profane and initiated, should immediately take their
heads out of the sand and resolve the following problem. In Chapter 23 in
his "Relativity" Einstein claims that a clock at rest undergoes time
contraction, that is, runs fast by a factor of gamma relative to a clock
situated at the edge of a rotating disk. The Juggler also claims that this
follows from Lorentz transforms. However Lorentz transforms predict no time
contraction - rather, the only time distortion they predict is symmetrical
time dilation for two inertial systems. So Einsteinians should prove that
their god is not a Juggler and derive, RIGOROUSLY, the time contraction
factor (gamma) from Lorentz transforms.
