I edited the "Postulates of special relativity" after reading this article on PhysOrg.com

http://www.physorg.com/news11829.html

One of the points that Baierlein makes, is that relativity is generally taught using a version of the second postulate which is far less intuitively plausible than the the second postulate as originally formulated by Einstein.

[edit] User:Der alte Hexenmeister

It seems that Der alte Hexenmeister (talk contribs) may be the person known on UseNet newsgroups by such handles as Androcles and Hexenmeister (google on this handles with group:sci.physics.relativity). The first edits of this new WP user unfortunately violated a number of policies; I just noted some of the violations on his user talk page. Please help us monitor to make sure he follows our behavioral rules in future.---CH 04:12, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
