I was not aware of Ivor Catt, but his conclusions are the same as those persons who eventually I will be referencing here. As you observed, his work already gives the answers to several of my questions. For anyone checking out the link I urge you to follow the sub-links in that URL to other papers such as the Maxwell Revisited one. Unfortunately the figures and drawings in the original German paper was on Compuserve which is now dead. Hopefully a working link will be put back. Check it out. =============================================== Aside from an interest in history/psychology, why would anyone want to search/research for Maxwell's aether? It is a blind alley, I urge you not to go that way. By all means meet Gauss, Ampere and Faraday along the road, but don't turn left into Maxwell's cul-de-sac looking for original Scottish papers that have been translated into German. Why would Maxwell write an original paper in German? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Clerk_Maxwell I won't say "idiot", no point in stating the obvious.

I tried to email you a relevant section from Griffiths, "Introduction to Electrodynamics", 3rd edition, but the email bounced: The following addresses had delivery problems: <larryharson(a)softhome.net> Permanent Failure: 550_account_expired Delivery last attempted at Wed, 23 Sep 2009 15:04:44 -0000

The only credentials you've managed to acquire is your big ugly mouth. (And I must admit you are pretty good with that!)
