Obviously true for traveling waves. But how about the
"electromagnetic waves and photons" involved in standing
waves? Some folk here would have us believe that they are
not moving at all.


Cecil,

So do you actually believe that standing waves are completely static and
inert?

Of course not, Gene, but some on this newsgroup apparently
believe that. (Hint: I said it was a rhetorical question).

Why do some posters on this newsgroup go out of their way
to deny the photonic nature of the two traveling wave
components that are the cause of the standing wave?
