This concept was generally abandoned half a century ago, but refuses to die. In 1948 Einstein himself warned against it in a letter to Lincoln Barnett. If you can read German and Einstein's handwriting you can read it for yourself on page 32 of this June 1989 Physics Today Article by Lev Okun But this fact is just a side-bar to your question, and doesn't address your concerns. | |
