Simple question, or is it...

It was only a matter of time before somebody name-dropped “Maxwell’s equations” to support his argument. Just as predicted yesterday. Beautiful! It was bound to happen sooner or later. Don’t you see 👀 the wave is not the energy? Hel-loo! That’s why it matters what the conductor is made of, no? If the signal was outside it who would care what the conductor is made of? Why aren’t you still scratching your head? 🤔 The Characteristics of the signal determine the characteristics of the energy, no?  The E and M fields don’t just pop up by themselves.

tomic601, yeah, I've read that C19 has been going thru Chchchchchanges.....

Oh, well....like I pointed out to our aging dogchild this morning, this 'existence' stuff is a mixed bag....as she grumbled and grunted thru her 'wake up' routine. *G*

The problem with discerning electron flow thru a medium seems to follow the same issues with quantum states.  But it does keep folks buying wire....;)
