Good for you Cecil, that is why I reffered earlier to alpha and beta
instead of getting people involved in Quantum theory.
Remember you are talking to old people who are retired or have been
laid off
because they haven't kept up with change. I suspect the electron
aurgument
will now take its place at the front inline with the education of old.
Same way with regard to free particles residing on the surface of a
conductor,
that possibly was not understood in the dark ages either.
The mode of discussion here is either they don't understand it or try
to be a bit more assertive by saying it is garbage as a means of
regaining their former statue of old but obviously that is not going
to happen , sooner or later they will have to accept that.
