I disagree. Tom only accepts what he reads if it conforms to what he currently accepts to be the case. At least that's the way his actions appear to tell us. Pete

You seem to have a very limited view of Tom, who I believe to be one of the most informed people in this group. You may find some people who agree with you but they will be the "usual suspects". -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com

I would say that the accelerating electric charges in the antenna radiate a whole range of photons. Their density follows the voltage of the applied signal. The 'radio wave' is just the density distribution. >A TRAIN of photons all synchronized is a wave on a beam.

So you claim. I've experienced Tom's posting habits for the last 7 years. I fully understand what he does. I'm not interested in taking a vote on who agrees with me or not. |
