don't bother asking him to explain himself(he wont/cant). You can tell by his statement alone that he doesn't have a clue what he is talking about, just digg him down and hope he eventually picks up a physics book.
I would say that the fact that satellites and atomic clocks on high speed planes loose time compared to stationary clocks on earth, seems to pretty much seal the deal.I am aware that any "theory" in science, like gravity for instance... can never be "proven", but that doesn't mean it's correctness is in question.Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

They're not trying to confirm relativity as a general principle, they're trying to confirm whether equivalence applies to quantum systems.

Yeah. Go on. Keep testing Einstein. One day, you'll be sorry.
