Default Standing-Wave Current vs Traveling-Wave Current

Humph, all this hot air just addles my aged brain...

I do know a FEW things however...

I know that standing waves exist because I can slide my fluorescent
bulb along the line and show precisely where they are

I can measure the distance between peak voltage points with a metric
wooden ruler and demonstrate/prove that 3X10^6meters / Fcycles =
the length of the measured 2 radians of travel....

But most importantly I KNOW that the standing waves are real and have
energy because my fluorescent tube lights up as it passes the peaks...
That requires energy/watts/joules to flow through the gas of the
tube...

You can use all the damned words in the world to talk around and
obscure the subject, but when I slide along my line the bulb lights to
maximum brilliance every half wave length of the standing waves...
