so, you're saying that photons (rocks o'light) are not waves
in a medium (or "vacuum"), but is aether, itself?... wow.

thus:
there is always some missing mass in any fission or

only matter-antimatter reactions approach a complete conversion;
true?

thus:
all "photons" are readily absorbed by the correct tuner,
generally a change of orbital of an electron, I suppose;
all "photons" "go" at the speed of propogation of lightwaves,
depending upon the index of refraction of the medium
(given that there is really no vacuum "a la Pascal").

thus:
but, dood, what in Hell do *you* mean,
by "aether & matter are different states
of the same material" -- why do atoms and
electrons & antiatoms need "an other state"
of themselves?

thus:
Skeptics were just another Greek cult under the Roman Empire;
Peripatetics, Gnostics, Stoics, Epicureans etc.
ad vomitorium. I recall also recently reading that Justice
Kennedy had come out for WS in some moot court, but
that he later came to Oxford ... most likely, because
it serves his oligarchical worldview (or, it was Scalia).

I know of at least three "proofs" that WS was WS, but
I recently found a text that really '"makes the case,"
once and for all (but the Oxfordians, Rhodesian Scholars, and
others brainwashed by British Liberal Free Trade,
capNtrade e.g.).

thus:
what ever it says, Shapiro's last book is just a polemic;
his real "proof" is _1599_;
the fans of de Vere are hopelessly stuck-up --
especially if they went to Harry Potter PS#1.

Mass does not convert to energy. Matter transitions to aether. Matter
expands in three dimensional space as it transitions to aether. Matter
increases in volume as it transitions to aether. The physical effect
this transition has on the neighboring aether and matter is energy.

There is no 'missing mass'. The mass which no longer exists as part of
the matter has converted to aether.

When you watch an atomic bomb explode you are watching the physical
effect matter expanding in volume as it transitions to aether has on
the neighboring matter and aether:

'DOES THE INERTIA OF A BODY DEPEND UPON ITS ENERGY-CONTENT? By A.
EINSTEIN'
http://www.fourmilab.ch/etexts/einstein/E_mc2/e_mc2.pdf

"If a body gives off the energy L in the form of radiation, its mass
diminishes by L/c2."

The mass of the body does diminish, but the matter which no longer
exists as part of the body has not vanished. It still exists, as
aether. As the matter transitions to aether it expands in three
dimensions. The effect this transition has on the surrounding aether
and matter is energy.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass%E2%80%93energy_equivalence

"The equation E = mc2 indicates that energy always exhibits mass in
whatever form the energy takes.[3] It does not imply that mass may be
“converted” to energy, for modern theory holds that neither mass nor
energy may be destroyed, but only moved from one location to another.
In physics, mass must be differentiated from matter. In cases where
matter particles are created or destroyed, the precursors and products
retain both the original mass and energy, which is unchanged. Mass–
energy equivalence also means that mass conservation becomes a
restatement of the law of energy conservation, which is the first law
of thermodynamics."

The products retain the original mass because the product is aether.

In E=mc^2, mass is conserved.

so, what happens to the lightwaves (or "photons"),
in the matter of this so-called theory -- how
do you *explain* electromagnetism vis-a-vu
this little linguistic ideal of aether?

it could just be a matter of English as a second language, or
that you have never made a mathematical proof (viz,
"Einstein's proof of the pythagorean th."). or,
are you the one, who says, - got it from G-d?

Quote from Albert A Michelson's lecture circa 1899.

"Suppose that an aether strain corresponds to an electric charge, an
aether displacement to the electric current, aether vortices to the
atoms; if we continue these suppositions, we arrive at what may be one
of the grandest generalizations of modern science, namely that all the
phenomena of the physical universe are only different manifestations
of the various modes of motion of one all-pervading (substance), the
aether. The day seems not to distant when the converging lines from
many apparently remote regions of thought will meet on some common
ground. Then the nature of the atom and the forces called into play in
their chemical union, the interactions between these atoms and the
non-differentiated aether as manifested in the phenomena of light and
electricity , the structure of the molecule, the explanation of
cohesion, elasticity and gravitation, all of these will be marshaled
into a single compact and consistent body of scientific knowledge."

I would modify the statement to read:

"all the phenomena of the physical universe are only different
manifestations of the various states of one all-pervading (substance),
the aether."

http://www.tu-harburg.de/rzt/rzt/it/Ether.html

Albert Einstein:

"the state of the former is at every place determined by connections
with the matter and the state of the ether in neighbouring places"

I would modify the statement to read:

The state of the aether as determined by the connections with the
matter and the state of the aether in neighboring places is the
aether's state of displacement.

Michelson's "aether displacement to the electric current" and
Maxwell's 'displacement current' are the same conceptually.

Electromagnetism is a state of the aether's displacement.

I wish, you'd not quote these old farts;
any of their experimental work, of course, is fine (but
that would exclude Einstein, a noted non-experimenter,
although he did do his own patents).

in other words, these folks believed in Pascal's perfect vacuum,
but this has ne'er been observed; so, forget about it.

Like, Dirac's math is fine (and difficult) but
it does not justify de Broglie's conception
of a guidewave for a useless photon.

thus:
yeah, but you're are trying to aver that
"space is not a void *because* of aether,"
whereas a vacuum has never been demonstrated,
since Paacal (thought that he) discovered it.

that is to say,
there is only *relative* vacuum,
through which waves of light may propogate,
just as they do through the (relative vacuum of) air.

thus:
second-powering has nothing per se to do
with the regular tetragon; in "E=mcc,"
it has more to do with an expanding spherical wavefront
(saith Bucky .-)... not a circle, though.
