Print doesn`t convey sarcasm nearly so well as does tone of voice. Cecil
knows as well as anybody that a standing wave is manifestation of the
stagnant phase between incident and reflected waves persisting on a long
transmission line.

What Cecil said is true. No magic moment arrives when anything goes
"poof!" at the end of a transistion.

The insane usually insist that they are sane. But, they seldom vouch for
each other, hence my testimony.

Hi Richard,

The record of your quotation, above, is incomplete.
"Nothing magic, like the invention of talking movies, happens at the instant
stead-state is achieved."

"Nothing magic, like exploding suns, happens at the instant
stead-state is achieved."

"Nothing magic, like the kidnapping of the Lindberg baby, happens at the instant
stead-state is achieved."

"Nothing magic, like signing of the Declaration of Independance, happens at the instant
stead-state is achieved."

As with any babbling of inmates: so much to say, so little said in the
first place....

The Marquis de Sade put more effort into his writing and got more
participation out of the inhabitants of Charenton in his production of
the "Persecution and Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat."
