Hi Jim,

Certainly a trove of complexity. Keeping to the tenor of your choice:
"I have not had a moment's peace or happiness in respect to
electromagnetic theory since November 28, 1846. All this time I
have been liable to fits of ether dipsomania, kept away at
intervals only by rigorous abstention from thought on the
subject."

I sippose that California varietals were not available as an
alternative to ether. Oh how we can celebrate the modern march of
progress by viewing the problems of electromagnetic theory through the
bottom of a wine glass. Such libation allows one to simultaneously to
offer solutions and to observe that "rigorous abstention from
thought." Lord Kelvinator would be proud.
