I probably should not have breached the subject since it will be a war

Radio is not particulate so why the hang-up over photons???
Quoting Roger Miller from the movie: "Water Hole Number Three"; "If
fishes had wishes, they'd fly".
Actually, it has nothing to do with opinions and everything to do with
actual experiments. EM wave energy, which includes visible light and
RF waves, has been proven beyond any doubt to be quantized which
implies a particle nature and not a continuously variable analog
field. In fact, quantum electrodynamics, which has an uncanny ability
to predict sub-atomic physics experimental outcomes, tells us that
nothing can exist outside of its existence as a particle. Have you
ever tried to prove that something can actually exist without a
particle nature being involved?
Not quite.
You can observe the particle nature of EM or you can observe the wave
nature of EM, but you can't observe both at the same time.
