permitt a small quote sir:
"Something here still does not make sense to me, but I am not sure how to put it into words at this time."

it is indeed counter intuitive that the speed of light is allways the same regardless of the frame of referance from which an observer measures it.

that the laws of physics are the same regardless of ones frame of referance is not so counter intuitive.

regards tim
