Then I understand why you would be confused into thinking you've made
a physical explanation, when you've done nothing of the sort. You've
perhaps provided a layperson's explanation, but not a PHYSICAL
explanation.

Also, Faraday got there first in the early 1800's. Ralph/Henry
is deficient in both science and the history of science. Next
week he'll be claiming to have invented the wheel.

So you invented that, did you?

You did nothing of consequence.
