Hi Dave,
I have been trying to follow your interesting work as I believe many on the 
Tesla list 
are also. I am confused by some of your terms and would appreciate it if you 
would explain what you mean by electromotive and electromotive force. I never 
knew that electrostatic (force) exists as a wave. What kind of a wave is it 
and where does it originate? And by what mechanism are these waves dampened 
and transformed from one to the other?

Happy day,
Ralph Zekelman
