Babbling nonsense.

Actually there is much sense: there is no acceptance by anyone that
equilibrium "must" prevail (whatever that means) but by the author and
that Arthur stands alone.

Such tests as these pride of authorships statements are, fall into the
same category as oaths of allegience during the commie scare.

Nonsense; Maxwell's equations always apply and "equilibrium" is just
babble.

I think that's kind of what he was getting at. At least, it looked like a
reflection on Art's use of 'equilibrium', a use only Art seems to see. If no-
one else is bound by it, it follows that other people can devise half-wave
dipoles in accordance with Maxwell's equations, as I imagine they often do.
