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.

Richard, the frequency of photons extends from DC to gamma
rays and beyond. You think because you cannot see them that
they don't exist???? RF waves are certainly made up of photons
that you cannot see. There are many more photons that you
cannot see than photons that you can see. If you are relying
solely upon your flawed human sight for the detection of
all photons, you are severely handicapped.
