| Phil said there was a "lack of interest" on the part of the authors "to
| explore the field of fast rise time pulses and edge transitions".
They don't seem to have that interest. It could be because these kinds of
surges happen less often. It takes a close lightning strike for it to happen.
| Of IEEE standards for characterizing surges Phil said "they've missed a
| lot of reality."
They are at least not covering all of it. It's not practical to cover it all
in one document.
| Of an experiment by Francois Martzloff, an expert in the field, that
| directly contradicts Phil, Phil says "then he flubbed the experiment."
This comment was pointed at Bud, who misunderstand the science behind any of
this. I don't believe Martzloff flubbed anything. Instead, he just did not
focus on it. Bud misunderstands this. Bud assumes ONE document is complete
coverage of all science.
| Of Martzloffs comments, quoted earlier, for raising clamp voltages Phil
| said Martzloff had a "hidden agenda".
Again, this is for Bud's benefit so maybe it would spur him to think about
what he reads instead of just spouting off misapplied science. I was hoping
he would be able to learn. This was a while back. He's show no learning
since then, which suggests he might be full.
