What are you missing?
In your "example" (ie. your SR resolution at http://mentock.home.mindspring.com/twins.htm) you ("you".. that's your site, right?) state, "Bob zooms off after Ann at 15/17 light speed (now we know why it was important), and of course catches up. It takes him 4 years, and he has seen 8 years since Ann left. Ann has aged 10 years. Same result. No paradox."

You fail to even address how Ann ended up aging ten years! yeah, we NEED that info or we don't believe your conclusion: "No paradox".

You also claim on your main (twin2.htm) page that Bob ages less due to Time Dilation. I balk at that. My SR-only resolution found at http://ezrelativity.com, Addendum IV, correctly attributes the aging difference to relativistic Time Dissynchronicity BECAUSE dilation effects are still covariant -- so THEY cannot play that role.
