I have yet to open any such app as it relates to this thread at all.

You have me confused.

Path? The Conduction path, ya dope.

JF, Please get that descriptor correct:

It should be "NARCISSISTIC BULLSHITTER"

You must have forgotten that part of the EE ed you referred to. The
part related to when a term is considered zero.

I see now where John's statement about your problem near zero and
infinity comes from.

You eluded all through the thread that said oscillations would occur
with no drop in voltage.

Now, you want to look at the very tiniest of reverb remaining long
after any real examination would consider the 'signal' to be zero.

Can one cap infinitely transfer charge to another without loss?
