Of course, it acts like a reflection and of course there is a reflective
surface if it is non-glare glass or a point if it is in a transmission
line. It is exactly what Walt has dubbed a "virtual short" and it is
a short for voltage, but not for current.


I remember when you were just as dubious about this as I am. How does
something that isn't a real short - and apparently doesn't even act like
a real short - cause real reflections? I'm not saying it doesn't. I'm
just saying that if you know how, please explain it. Thanks.
