Which still couldn't be further from proving your point.  Try again.  How is a guy sitting in a chair free falling?  Keep in mind you need to explain how he is free of forces.  
Read what I said.

Both of you have no idea what is going on. 
A person is not in free fall on the surface of the earth. 
Uh, you sure?

Quote from: wikipedia
A person sitting on a chair is trying to follow a geodesic (free fall towards the center of the Earth), but the chair applies an external upwards force preventing the person from falling. In this way, general relativity explains the daily experience of gravity on the surface of the Earth not as the downwards pull of a gravitational force, but as the upwards push of external forces which deflect bodies on the Earth's surface from the geodesics they would otherwise follow.
A person is not in free fall on the surface of the earth. 

You are stupid.

Yes, for me.  I have clearly showed how you have no idea what you are talking about.  A guy sitting in a chair is not in free fall.

This has to be the single most ironic statement I've seen on this site yet.

Here are the correct figures for the FE model of an objects "terminal Velocity"

t   Velocity Of Object   Acceleration
1   1.925523968   1.925523968
2   12.52899752   6.264498762
3   17.14577418   5.71525806
4   39.068657   9.76716425

So as you can see it still takes longer to reach an acceleration of 9.81/s2, twice as long actually and the objects velocity is almost twice that of the object in the RE model.
Only 2 things are infinite the universe and human stupidity, but I am not sure about the former.

Acceleration should go down with respect to time.

My bad but an extra number in excel when it ran so here are the numbers

Δt   Velocity Of Object   Acceleration
1   1.925523968   1.925523968
2   12.52899752   6.264498762
3   27.07947648   9.026492161
4   38.81887951   9.704719877
5   48.9886285   9.7977257
6   58.85158707   9.808597845
7   68.66888146   9.809840209
8   78.47985436   9.809981795
9   88.28998133   9.809997926
10   98.09999764   9.809999764
11   107.9099997   9.809999973
12   117.72                9.809999997
13          127.53                9.81

So you can still see the predictions of the FE model still differ from the RE model so that should be easy to test

To save me from digging through this argument, can someone post the equivalent equations for RE and FE and I'll get Mathematica to make some pretty graphs for everyone.

Relative to the Earth?  When your upwards acceleration equals the acceleration of the Earth.

But, I've said this already.
Made this using LaTex and I forgot to resize the page so sorry

The only mistake on this page is that you need to take the velocity of the object into account when calculating the FE model. So instead of having Vair we should have the (Vair-Vobject) and the acceleration of the object must equal the accleration of the earth so the aceleration needs to be 9.81 obviously
