Default Equilibrium in free space

On the contrary, this is the crux of the original
discussion - whether a wave can exist outside the
structure of the universe, whatever that may be.


Cecil:

That was what I got out of it ... but then, I focused on Arts'
observation, "One thing is certain, Gauss states that static particles
cannot radiate in free space as there is no exchange of flux ... "

And, obviously, IMHO, he is referring to a space truly "composed of
nothing" and absent of anything even resembling an ether. And, I did
accept that as the crux of his ponder-ings/point(s.)

However, also buried in his text are obvious references to a space such
as the one our universe resides in ... So, once again, one of those
arguments/debates which could go on forever ... and I got those prior
appointments ... ;-)
