As can be seen, Richard Herring continues to dodge and weave,
and hide, and equivocate.

I, for one, would like to see a few of Richard Herring's "facts"
rather than his childish personal attacks.

I suggest that if Richard Herring is "in the know",
he would let the readers in on what he knows ( About physics).

And I might point out to Richard Herring that
when people speak of a "line of force" they mean
an equipotential "force" line or path through space,
and they are not referring to the direction in space,
that the "line of force" happens to have at some point
in space and time.
