still. :-)

EM waves are photonic in nature must travel at the speed of
light in the medium. A standing wave stands still and oscillates
in place. Therefore, A standing wave is not an EM wave - It is
something else, by definition.

Guess if you told me we were all communicating on "entangled antennas"
(and, yes, a 1:1 relationship to entangled particles)--I'd have to, at
least, give it a thought! ROFLOL!

Merry Xmas OM,
