I do not believe in magic. Do you understand, at every level, how a transistor works? What is this "hole" theory then? A form of transmission using nothingness? Why would two materials conduct electricity in one direction, but not the other, based on how they are joined? Sounds pretty magical, no? > Electromagnetic radiation (that's radio in case you can't make the > connection) requires no "substrate", "medium", or "aether". Without offering any support to those who have an unshakable belief that aether is necessary and does exist I hasten to point out, as has been done many times before, that our understanding of how things work does not require it. Many things once supported by mainstream science have been replaced by ideas having a better fit. The pro bunch keep yelling "it does exist!" The anti crowd keeps taunting, "it doesn't, it doesn't!" > Life is too short to bother with kooks that can't understand or > accept over a hundred years of research. > *PLONK* You're both guilty of religious posturing.
