Thought experiment vs real experiment
In Articles for deletion/King David's Sling you wrote:
 * This is not a thought experiment. A thought experiment was used as a foil to expound upon the scientific method employed. The real experiment, as pictured in fig. 1 of the cited article, is a real experiment based on classical physics.

By this, I assume you mean figure 1 of your paper published in the Journal of Modern Physics. That figure shows the apparatus of a rotating disk with a mounted emitter that, by the text of your paper, would be rotating at some 3.5 x 109 RPM in order to achieve the required faster-than-light communications. By calling this a "real experiment", you are implying that you have, in fact, built this apparatus and launched it into orbit to test the hypothesis. (Or, at the very least, built the apparatus on earth.) If this is not the case, then you have not performed a "real experiment", but only a "thought experiment".
