    I knew he'd bean waxing lyrical about Maxwell's equations for years but
    didn't realise it was at least 12 years. No doubt you were prompted by
    his latest fishing expedition on other groups.

    I think he's been at it a lot longer .You'd have thought he'd have
    learned something by now. There's lots of stuff out there all about it
    OpenEMs etc . I suppose the curse of being a polymarf is that keeping up
    with everything is a full time job.

    Yeah, I couldn't find the thread I was thinking of (guess it didn't
    have Maxwell in the title), but there were plenty of others to choose
    from.
