No Michael.

His argument is in response to my presentation.
I am discussing heat conduction.

Particularly I am discussing the discrepancy between the rate of
propagation of heat to the rate of propagation of sound, both of which
are accepted in modernity to be 'vibrating atoms'. This discussion
does not take place in advanced physics, e.g. Kittel's Solid State
Physics.

Would you care to deny that the mechanism of conduction of heat
through say a bar of steel is via atomic translation? What about
sound?

Particularly, I may take a nail with a very sharp point and hammer it
into one end of the bar of steel and observe that a local perturbation
does conduct through the bar very rapidly. Next take an acetylene
torch at full blast applied to the end of the bar and observe how
remarkably slow that heat will transfer to the other end of the bar.

The interpretation of heat as vibrating atoms is flawed. There must be
a more loosely coupled interaction at work in the conduction of heat.

Indeed, the conduction of heat is not as organized as a wave, it's
more analogous to the diffusion of a scent.

waht he said. ultimately, it is all mediated
by radiation, but "stuff gets in the way of it."

there is another mode of heat transfer, perhaps
also less analyzable a la Fourier,
"trasporative heat flow," when water flows
over a warm object e.g.

That would seem to allow transmission of information.
