Hello Jerry,

With all due respect to you, I do not think that I deserve to be reduced to one
person. I have no problem to stand behind what I say. May be I should have said
that I preffer one personal experiment or observation to hundred URL's.

I did quite a bit on transverse water waves, and my refference to the behaviour of
ocean waves comming to the coast is as relevant as anything. As soon as you
dissregard the concept of relativity regards wave of light, and look at it from
the point of view of QM, it makes sense to treat EM strength as multitude and the
wave as the transverse property of photon. As biased as it may be, it lead me to a
very simple principle, which looks way better than anything out there.

And please remember that I said, as biased as it may be.

Regards Slavek.
