IF I am guilty misunderstanding the nature of the controversy, you may not
believe this but it actually will not make me lose confidence in myself
(shudder).

don't lose confidence, they are all wrong... no, maybe that is too harsh,
they are all correct about one little thing each. if you will note, they
each have one special case that they keep falling back on like it is the
touchstone of all of electromagnetic. cecil and his optics, art and gauss's
law, richard and terman, one talking energy conservation, one talking adding
powers, then another adding fields, poynting vectors, skin depths,
reflecting waves, interfering waves that never reflected in the first place,
apples, oranges, and broccoli, and never the twain shall meet... its been
this way for years. it used to be fun, now its just getting monotonous.
you guys should go try your arguments in sci.physics.electromag, over there
you might find fresh idiots to soak up your wisdom... they like tesla,
freaky coils, permanent magnet machines, and faster than light stuff, you
guys would fit right in.
