Typical example of your snipping and lying to distort the facts.

You know as well as I do that my reference to sin(t/T) + sin(t/T+pi) = 0 had
nothing to do with the absence of flashes but to an entirely different question
you raised, namely that relating to the absence of variation in the brightness
curves of supposed close binaries..
