John, to be fair, in another posting, I quoted Balanis
as saying: "Any transverse components of power density
will not be captured by the [Poynting] integration even
though they are part of the overall power." Balanis seems
to imply that it is possible for transverse radiation
components to exist but get lost inside the math model.

Cecil,

I did nothing more than supply a quotation from a respected authority on the
subject. I did not support the authority. Art dismissed the quotation
without so much as a single reference to any other authority. He did not
provide any supporting math or technical papers. Isn't this like saying "It
is so (or not so) because I said so. Take my word for it."

And he did not answer a single question I asked. Hmmmmmm.

At least you supplied another viewpoint from an authority, although you go
on to reduce my confidence in the quote with "seems to imply" and "it is
possible" (but not certain).
