>the suggestion of simultaneity -
>in the memorable phrase, there is a relativity of simultaneity.
There is no need to fear....
What is being discussed here is what happens across a surface of...
separation between 2 *adjacent* regions. This surface has *zero* thickness.
everything in our discussion [is] spatially close enough so that any
causal propagation delay is arbitrarily close to zero. I think this
allows the use of the term 'simultaneous' in the above context.
>Propagation rate must enter if there is to be a flow, I would think.
Good point. We certainly can evaluate this (and ought to do so to
verify the claim I made above).
