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. > > glird

"'Fields' for instance are explainable". So you lied.

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?
