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????


Photons I do see, do exist, and are NOT "responsible for producing all
electric and magnetic fields."

Photons I do NOT see, do exist, and are NOT "responsible for producing
all electric and magnetic fields."

And electric and magnetic fields exist quite independently of ANY
photons (invisible or otherwise) which, of course, means that photons
were NEVER "responsible for producing" these "electric and magnetic
fields." Note that ALL is inclusive in its totality and I have thrice
demonstrated that falsity.

Like I said, your naive statements propagate a lot of foolishness and
fall far short of illuminating.

So, time for another simple computation:

What is the temperature of an 80M photon?

Looking forward to your fumble.
