Neither is an absolute (assuming a closed universe), so there are problems with using either. For a long time, the speed of light was considered the only absolute, but IIRC, a pair of Aussie scientists demonstrated last year that there's been some slowing of light (not quite as much as Setterfield calculates, but there) as well. Nope. By definition, the speed of light in a vacuum is a constant.

Nope. By definition, the speed of light in a vacuum is a constant. And you have proved this, how?
