Except at opens and shorts, real and virtual, where amps or volts for an
instant however brief are brought down to zero, which is a transfer of
all energy to either the electric or magnetic field.

That was the definition of a traveling wave in a Z0 environment, Richard,
and opens and shorts are not a Z0 environment. Can you give an example of
a virtual short and explain how it develops?
