That's like saying you can be a little bit pregnant. At the risk of being ridiculed, I still maintain that the clock strikes present, not past. Therefore if it is two oclock in any part of the world, it remains two oclock based on the position of the Earth at that moment. This means that we see in the present, and I will not back down until proven otherwise.
He's not making an argument or observations, you daftie. He's trying to figure out what your model actually says about the world.

And you have been proven otherwise (moons of Jupiter, amongst millions of other observations!), you just decided to ignore it and hope they are wrong!
