THIS CAN BE IMPROVED SO THE ERROR IS LOWER (COOKING DATA?). AFTER ALL,
RELATIVISTS ARE USED TO IT.

According to Heaviside they computed the speed of the electrical
field actually overlaps the tachyonic, while the activity in
the field is yet bradyonic, just expressing why there's a
Heaviside regime in the outside the Maxwellian sort of
like there's a trans-Planckian regime outside the Planckian
and that it's all sort of in terms of Angstroms, ....
I think that most people if they saw that the
Heaviside and friends like Larmor and Faraday
computed the velocity of the electrical field
as (if only very slightly i.e. within 1 or 2
orders of magnitude) greater than the velocity of light,
anyways they wouldn't care mostly because
they'd just figure that it was another empirical
thing.
Yet, for mathematical physicists it sort of sticks out
as like, "Heaviside tension".
Heaviside and Larmor and Faraday are pretty great,
and Maxwell's good too, so Maxwell's pretty great,
and then though most of the real electrical and
magnetic fields, as they are, are the potential
fields, and as with regards to Wheeler and Feynman
and all that, and besides Feynman's usual willingness
to put an explanation in electron physics on anything,
that he also sidles right up to the non-classical and
extra-classical and super-classical of the field
theory, and a continuum mechanics, and is always
like "and notice what I don't say here".
