The "Twin" paradox..

You must all know this one..
Two twins ..one flys away at c and one stays at home... when they reunite their ages are considerably different...

it fascinates me..... and when I found this (article below) I felt my thunder had been stolen... some may recall my ramblings about it years ago and my logic to point out there was no paradox... well seems someone has or at least approached the problem the way I felt it could be addressed... and yes using different reference frames... other than those being measured for age increments.. I used passing stars.. so is this fella right or not???
