Many of you are far more educated than I, but many of you
demonstrate precisely why I chose not to be brainwashed with
a formal education. Many cannot see past the end of their
noses, yet they insist upon laying down the law regarding
what is acceptable science and what is not. As though anyone
actually knows anything at all.

Let's not forget that one's educational level has nothing to
do with native IQ.

You are correct to say that education has nothing to do with IQ.
Faraday had little formal training, yet his arduous work is now
exalted by naming one of the basic electromagnetic laws after him. But
I take issue with the idea that you can't actually know anything at
all. For instance, electrodynamic theory was developed 150 years ago,
and the KNOWN successful results of that are numerous.

Newtonian mechanics held up well for hundreds of years. A whole
industrial revolution was built on it. Yet some pesky observations by
Michelson and Morley regarding the invariant speed of light found it
wanting. Relativistic mechanics subsumed Newtonian mechanics, but
Einstein didn't invalidate Newton. I believe the mathematical term
"embedding" applies.

I am currently re-studying the original theory of Maxwell, et. al.,
with the intent of finding some chink in the armor. Tesla reported
longitudinal electromagnetic wave phenomena, which contradicts the now-
standard theory that EM waves can ONLY be transversal. Using Maxwell's
original quaternion equations, before Heviside simplified them into
the now-standard vector form, one can derive longitudinal wave
components. If those exist, does that prove you don't know how to
operate a ham radio? No, it just means you're radiating something in
addition to what you expect.

You CAN know something and apply it. You just need to realize that
what you know isn't complete, and never can be.

The chink is provided by Gauss.Adding a time varient to his law of
statics brings you to
Maxwells law Holding on to the equilibrium underpinnings you may then
insert a radiator that also is in equilibrium i.e. a full wave length.
Now you are equipped to insert same into a antenna program to
determine shape ,size,elevation e.t.c for maximum horizontal gain.
Maxwells law will then show that to meet this requirement is for the
radiator to not be parallel to the ground surface but tipped to an
angle. This angle is the summation of the curl vector and others that
are entailed.Gauss following from the Newtonian aproach of equilibrium
provides a pasaage of knoweledge that was not available in the blank
statements of Maxwell.
All this provides a picture which equals a thousand words and a sound
basis to build upon.
The understanding of this aproach has been stalled with this newsgroup
on the basis of transformation of static field to a dynamic field is
illegal, regardless of the math proving otherwise! Facts are stranger
than the fiction of this group.
Have fun with your studies.

OOOOps
I forgot to state that the house was not actually situated in the
afluent area in its intended spot. They made a lightning descision to
live in the neigboring county where the wheels came off. The house was
close to the road and leaning at an angle but they figures with the
gouges made by the axles in the dirt woud save them some costs in
drainage and with the windows leaning towards the sky they could sun
bathe while sitting in the living room.
Brain power they proudly stated while at the same time scratching
their rear ends.
Oh, and another thing. That graffitty sign I mentioned earlier which
was a red spray paint, they sprayed that on the board after the red
paint background on the board had dried off.
