Crossen finds one source that agrees with his bias and stops looking,
then makes post after post after post believing he has discovered the
ultimate truth!

I chose the "laboratory" to be the lab where the atmospheric muons
were counted. So the muons don't only have the same speed, they are
the same muons.

And I chose the laboratory to mean when the muon lost energy as it
was slowed down by matter and came to rest:

What kind of reasoning is behind Laurence's question:
"Then why would they "time dilate" in the atmosphere?"
beats me.

Well, he seldom has it all together.

Well, he has merely scratched the surface and his AI app is wrong
about muon lifetime in the laboratory.  Muon-electron "atoms" are
not formed by muons travelling at relativistic speeds and the
lifetime of the muon is 2.2 usec:
