In any case, Jim, oops, I mean John, here's the IEEE Dictionary's
definition of current.

"current - The flow of electrons within a wire or a circuit:
measured in ampheres." And no, there is no definition for
"current flow" in the IEEE Dictionary.

"Current flow" and "power flow" are commonly used terms to
signify "charge movement" and "energy movement". Objecting
to the use of the words "current flow" is really picking at
infinitessimal nits.

Current flow is an informal expression that is used by people who only
conversationally acquainted with electricity. That, of course,
doesn't explain why I occasionally slip up and say it.

I am just trying to eliminate as many pick points from your position
as possible, to reduce the side trips into strawman wars.
