point to me to where it is?
It is my first post to this thread, at level 2, responding directly to
Dave.
I can only handle one issue at a time (regarding what you said, it IS
possible to have a zero net energy expenditure as long as energy that was
sent out was received back again at a later time or at a different place;
that is what the sine/cosine functions essentially tell you, whether they
are functions of time or distance):
Hi Dan,
Well then, your concept of expended is quite different from most and
flexible to the point of not really meaning much. So what is the
point in using the word?
Regarding:
"Neither of these artificial conditions actually exist in the reality
of superposed waves, and that is the con. The group has been fixated
on the separate artificial environments with their partial solutions
as though they actually exist independent of the reality of the
superposed, complete solution."
This is a bit philosophical for me but let me say that I believe that a
square wave is definitely the sum of superimposed odd harmonics in
accordance with Fourier. I believe each of the superimposed waves exists
independently. If you do not believe me, just ask anyway who lives next door
to a CB'er with a linear amp and transmits over modulated square waves (due
to saturating his amplifier). The square waves exist but so do the component
waves. I am not sure if this is related to what you are saying but it seems
to be the same thing.
I believe that cupiditas is the root of evil; however, both of our
beliefs have nothing to do with partial solutions of Superposition
posing as real world entities.
