Thanks Geo, but I would like to know what Bob means when he says that
Special Relativity (SR) is just a theory. A *lot* of evidence shows that SR
is extremely accurate.

If SR is just a theory, then only "the Sun will rise tomorrow"
type statements can be better.

We know that SR is not a "this explains everything, and is always true
forever and ever" theory. But if SR is "just a theory", what
is better?
