Ernest, how can you have an absolute velocity when there are no privileged frames of reference??. In which case, Borg's equations are meaningless. To have a preferential reference frame, it must have uniquely fixed (absolute) coordinates in both time and space. If it did, that would imply that SR is a load of crock and everything else we've based our findings in science upon SR is wrong. To have an absolute frame of reference would mean SR was wrong, completely. Simple observation would tell you that Borg has approached this from a faulty premise, otherwise the speed of light would vary depending on your location and frame of reference, vis a vie the universal fixed frame of reference. Since this isn't the case, Borg must therefore by wrong.
