You dig your logical hole ever deeper, Tom. Current that doesn't move
means that dQ/dt equals zero. Hint: current cannot exist without
movement. Even DC current cannot stand still. AC/RF current is even
worse for your illogical premise.

Nope, you got it wrong again, Cecil. It's the charge that moves, not
the current. In fact all you have in this situation is space, charge, and
time. Current is just the flow rate of charge. I've wondered for a long time
where you got your understanding of transmission lines. Now, it seems,
you don't even have a good grasp of the meaning of the word "current."
I know there's no use arguing with you. Lo Ngow Ok Gow, as the
Hoi San people say (Old cow hard to teach). People who read your
posts should keep in mind your conceptual infirmities, however.
