Because I naturally assumed that people actually post on /sci/ a lot and didn't even bother to check the date, thinking that the thread might be an hour old.

What is an inertial frame? Is a frame of reference only an inertial frame of reference with respect to an object?

Using this definition:
http://farside.ph.utexas.edu/teaching/336k/lectures/node9.html#e3.7
Suppose universe consists of two point objects and in a particular frame of reference one of these objects moves in a straight line with a constant speed while the other moves with acceleration. Is this an inertial frame, or is it an inertial frame with respect to the point object with no acceleration?
