Nothing of the kind. Official version says that light behaves as particles, but also
as waves. Whenever I mentioned that the wave should be regarded as the property
inherent to photon, and not light as bulk, I got flamed by the orthodoxy. That is
mostly relativistic.

That is why I asked, if you realy meant photon, rather than light, or EM radiation.

Actually it seems that the hell is breaking loose. There is a new experiment which
can be interpreted in rather interesting manner.

It may corellate with that Hertz experiment I posted probably in this line. I did
not have time to really go through it yet. Just skipped through.

I am posting this, because I think it will interest more of us.

Regards Slavek.
