Sorry, Jim, for responding through you to these howlers courtesy of
Cecil's Xerographic talents.

Producing "all" electric "and" magnetic fields? This is just too
naive to contemplate. I suppose our compasses don't work in the dark,
do they? A light bulb would never illuminate unless it was ALREADY ON
illuminating the wire that conducted electricity.

The list of amusing contradictions to this catechism above goes on,
and on.... Now we return you to Cecil's lamentations about the
quality of work he puts to the copier's scanning screen. :-0

Imagine, cribbing notes from and then blaming Wikipedia indeed!
