As it was quite true you just as well could have said it. So I didn't
take the trouble to correct the minor error.

Reg, IMO, only a naive person would ever use the words,
"absolutely sure". :-)

Admit it, Reg. You are just ready to pounce on me after I revealed the
error of your belief that George Brown made a mistake by not measuring
ground conductivity in the work for his landmark 1937 IRE paper (that you
hadn't read) about ground systems for MW verticals. Don't pout.

What's your problem? Run out of bags?

No, I've got plenty. Do you want some?


No, your need is greater than mine.
I'm not so sure, you must need a massive spew bag after a session with

Even that would pale into insignificance compared to your need.
I'm OK thanks, I just turn the lights off, you must need a gas mask.

You have to make allowances for Mrs.Nugatory. As always,
I responded very quickly to a genuine request for help, but
responded to the lead given by the questioner who
mentioned spring/damper rather than spring/mass, and so
I responded off-the-cuff without too much forethought.

Better a quick response than none at all, or a response that
had the hallmarks of a 13-year old mind that requires a
literal meaning for everything, as does Mrs.Nugatory!

I acknowledged the error in a subsequent posting but Mrs. Nugatory
is a chronic paranoid obsessive who latches onto every thing that I say,
and hounds the thing to death, as she is doing below, many months
after the ephemeral chit-chat has ceased to have any relevance.

For example, if you seek out the time that I alerted Usenet users to
the availability of cheap dehumidifiers, Mrs.Nugatory managed to spin out
over 50 pages of insistence that I knew nothing about them!

Mentally deranged, or what!

1. You do not separately excite the E and H fields because
if you excite an E field, you get a corresponding H field, and
vice-versa,
even if it is your intention to excite separately.

Can this be the same idiot who thought that a spring/damper
combination was the mechanical equivalent of a coil and capacitor, on
the grounds that they both exhibited resonance?

The spring and damper can be exactly model as an electrical analog; as can
virtually any physical system. As a reference refer to "Dynamics of
Physical Circuits and Systems", by Lindsay and Katz at Concordia

Pound = Pound Weight, mass of one pound, acceleration (due to gravity)

Poundal = mass of one pound, acceleration of 1 ft/sec^2

Pound, Money = sort of like a dollar, but twice as valuable and more robust.

I continue to be in awe of MEs who
always seem to know whether the "pounds" they are talking of are
sort-of-like mass, or sort-of-like force, or money.

Actually $1.76 as of today, but used to be worth $2.40.
Any country too politically correct to call a terrorist a terrorist is not

Tis a real shame the spawn of a great people that endured so much with the

So... in a NON-POLITICAL way please describe those people of the mid
to late 1700's who went around shooting soldiers who wore REDCOATS and
GOVERNED a land the that was at one stage part of the GREAT BRITISH
EMPIRE and had as one of its main cities BOSTON ?
