Uhm, I think a better way of describing this would be a "omnidirectional
stress". A scalar is, to my knowledge, simply a difference in the charge
of the aether itself - right? It is without direction (hence why it's
coined a scalar - duh). :)

Uh - better look up those details again, Jerry. :) Longitudinal waves are
waves of compression and rarefaction - like sound. The way I look at it is
this: longitudinal waves compress/rarefact along the vector in which they
travel - while transverse waves compress/rarefact at an ANGLE (90 degrees,
in the case of magnetic fields) to the vector of travel. This still
doesn't explain the difference between what Tesla's longitudinal waves
were and Bearden's scalars (since supposably longitudinal waves can be
detected using conventional equipment - while Bearden's scalars cannot).
Confusing - damn confusing semantics games! DAMN THEM ALL!
<ugh> I need a vacation.
