So these two statements are in agreement." -------------------- End Original Message -------------------- I suppose there's not much point in getting into the well-accepted fact that the aether has been found not to exist in any physical sense, or at least not as the medium that light "makes waves in" as it was originally theorized. Perhaps it has metaphysical value of some sort.
