Give it up, Cecil. You don't even have a coherent notion of the
meaning of the term "phase." Selectively quoting, and re-interpreting
Bibles in order to make it seem as if the Gods agree with you won't cut
it, either. All the simple-minded rural sophistry in the world won't
make you right, or the rest of us wrong.
When you lose the technical argument, Tom, you always respond
with ad hominem attacks devoid of any technical content.
Fact is, the phase of the forward traveling current referenced
to the source current is equal to the distance from the source
expressed in degrees. The laws of physics will not stand for
anything else. That same number of degrees *IS* the phase
angle of the traveling wave(s). Every competent engineer knows
that as it is obvious from the equations in any good textbook.
