Hi all-
David's calculation makes no sense to me because it makes use
of a special gauge for the EM field. After discussion with David I
see no way to resolve our disagreement. I would firmly reject any
calculation that forswears gauge invariance. Gauge invariance merely
says that it is the fields that are physical, not the potentials.

I really wish you had posted your questions _here_ so that our conversation
could have been public. That way, other people could have seen it and given
their views on the matter. But instead, all they see is _your_ conclusions
on the matter, Jack. Please post the whole thing, you have my permission. I
think I made some excellent points which you seem to have completely
ignored.

Jack, with your permission, I'd like to post our conversations here. Please
check one.

[ ] yes, I have your permission to post the conversations

[ ] no, I don't have your permission to post the conversations

Dave
