The trouble I'm having is that IMO, the field concept is one of the more
abstract things one comes across in beginning physics. My students have
more trouble with fields than they do with "action-at-a-distance". If
one is using an idea of "locating energy" I find it hard to believe that
locating it in the field is any more concrete than locating it in the
interaction between two objects. But perhaps that is just me.
