The "name" is perhaps my own "invention",
Perhaps? (Insert laughing dog here.)
I never did see you present a single flaw in any of Alfven's books or papers Mr. Spock
How quickly and conveniently you forget.
and I'm still *IMPATIENTLY* waiting on your overdue science report.
I never registered for your course, and never will. All of the science courses I have taken were taught by actual scientists.
Yes or no can an electrical discharge happen in a plasma Mr. Spock?
So you didn't understand
tusenfem's answer?
If you insist on hearing an answer from me in my own words, then I'll oblige just as soon as you answer the following closely related question, which I am now having to repeat for the third time:
Do you,
Michael Mozina, agree with Peratt's contention that the genitalia of the
Tapamveni petroglyph represent an electrical discharge in a plasma?
FYI, if you keep showing such overt emotion
(Insert laughing dog here.)
and you can't answer direct science questions,
(Insert laughing dog here.)
I may be forced to strip you of your title of "Mr. Spock".
(Insert laughing dog here.)
Nobody is trying to "derail" anything.

This issue is DIRECTLY and *INTIMATELY* related to this whole debate. If you can't understand a definition, and you make inaccurate statements, and you refuse to back up your own *UNSUPPORTED CLAIMS* with anything but handwaves, how can we *POSSIBLY* have rational discussion?
Until you explain what you mean by "circuit reconnection", we can't possibly have a rational discussion of your imaginary theory.
You can't just say you're using that phrase as a synonym for magnetic reconnection, because that would expose the triviality of your semantic derail.
You can't just say you're using that phrase the way your heroes did, because your heroes didn't use that phrase.
I suppose you could say you're using "circuit reconnection" as a synonym for what Alfvén called "pseudo-science", in which case we may run out of laughing dogs.
It looks to me as though you're never going to explain what you mean by "circuit reconnection", so you will never contribute to a rational discussion of it. In my opinion, you never intended to engage in a rational discussion of "circuit reconnection", because you invented that phrase to derail rational discussion of magnetic reconnection in this and other threads.
