Re: WRT Distance of Stars
Hi Steve, welcome to EvC!
Threads here at EvC are almost always closed after 300 messages, so this thread is about 3/4 done. The arguments you've raised have already been raised and addressed in this thread. With only around 70 posts to go, there is far too little time to begin addressing these issues again from scratch.
I know it's a long thread, but if you start reading around post 150 or so you should still get a good sense of the current state of the discussion.

Re: Q&A
Sorry for the delay in responding, just now noticed your reply.
However looking at your garage too me it appears the transmitted pulse of light has left the garage however is the returning incident pulse that is returning to the garage at 300 times reduced speed.
The garage analogy is a very weak one. You're reading far too much into it if you're looking for actual correspondences to light pulses. Its only purpose was to point out that you're observing a secondary effect, not an actual sequence of events that indicate superluminal velocities.
I don't think I can add much to what I said before. I again refer you to all the places in the article that make clear that c has not been violated and that relativity is intact. I quoted these in my Message 227.
