Good grief, Jim, ExB is proportional to the irradiance of a light beam.
Good grief, Cecil, irradiance isn't a field and doesn't propagates
either!
Hi Jim,
Nearly every posting that Cecil pens with his rustic understanding of
Optics suffers from the obvious lack of experience.
There is a certain amount of pretense in this irradiance (an archaic
radiometric term used incorrectly for photometrics in an argument that
calls for luminous flux), much like quoting I²R and not knowing what
Ohms or Amperes are.
He's lucky there are so very few that appreciate the gaffs of his
unintended humor.
