you might also be interested in this paragraph from Ramo, Whinnery,
and Van Duzer's "Fields and Waves in Communicaiton Electronics" pg 237
section 4.07 that puts your insistence on adding a 't' to Gauss's law
in perspective:

"Equation (1) is seen to be the familiar form off Gauss's law utilized
so much in chapter 2. Now that we are concerned with fields which are
a function of time, the interpretation is that the electric flux
flowing out of any closed surface AT A GIVEN INSTANT is equal to the
charge enclosed by that surface AT THAT INSTANT."

Emphasis is THEIRS not mine, they were obviously anticipating your
objection and explaining why it isn't necessary to add a 't' to the
equation. I would put the 3 of them against your dr friend any day of
the week.


Come on Dave, they are only engineers, or even _worse_ PHYSICISTS!

They couldn't possibly compete with an intellect the likes of the one
brought to us by Art.
