Mr Miller, if that is your name, you are impertinent.
Just checked my driver's license - yep that is my name.
Nothing you have said has made any sense - nor has my other critic.
Only to one not educated in physics. The rest of us get it.
I stated, for example, that IF light has no MATTER, and has no MASS,
THEN.......
I went on to say, that - HOWEVER - it does make matter move.
In order to make matter move, it must have MASS.
I did not say at any time that light has REST MASS.
I said it must have MASS.
This mass is known as RELATIVISTIC MASS. I call it "Einstein Mass",
because he showed that energy has mass.
Which shows your naivity on the matter.
Before any of you arrogant people criticize, you must first READ and
first UNDERSTAND what I am saying.
Before you presume to preach to the educated, you should demonstrate you are a peer.
There are two kinds of mass. There is rest mass - as with matter at
absolute zero in the dark, and there is Einstein's relativistic mass of
energy. They are DIFFERENT KINDS of mass - but in many ways have
similar properties.
After all my years in photoelectrics, and all my studies, I do not need
to be lectured that electricity can create magnetism, and that
alternating magnetism can create electricity. Almost every child knows
this.
YOU ARE UTTERLY UNSCIENTIFIC TO CONCLUDE, AS YOU DO, THAT LIGHT
CONTAINS ELECTRICITY.
Never said it. My comment was directed to your statement:
"Light is often called "electromagnetic", but this is misleading.
Electrons are matter - and there is no matter in light. Electromagnetic
radiation is really just magnetic radiation which has the power to
influence electricity. So we would expect light to be mass-free."
Your conclusion that "(l)ight is often called 'electromagnetic', but this is misleading" is bogus, as amply demonstrated by electromagnetic theory.
Light is called "electromagnetic" because it is alternating magnetism
which CAN UNDER THE RIGHT CIRCUMSTANCES interact with electricity.
Correctly it should be called "magnetic radiation".
Naivity due to lack of proper education raises its head again.
So it is legitimate to remind any proper scientifically educated
audience that they should not confuse electricity and light.
Confusion seems more on your part, but keep braying.
I am also fully aware that there are many ways of observing the
"magnifying glass" effect of the sun upon light that passes near it.
One can construct a disc of cardboard or metal, and cover the sun with
it. You are quite presumptuous to push words into my mouth.
Speaking of braying, the above statement clearly makes no real sense - obviously you think you understand something that is actually beyond your grasp.
I never said that an eclipse is the ONLY way of testing the hypothesis.
There is so much wrong with your mind, that you cannot possible be a
scientist. Scientists are precise.
Which, of course, leaves you out.
