   Indeed - although it can look rather cruel to onlookers.   
      
   I'm curious though is the Demon brand still existent in demon.nl ?   
   Or is your handle a throwback to times past? Ping says domain not found.   
   It was exorcised in the UK soon after Vodaphone got their hands on it.

   When the cap fits...   
   You are arguing out of ignorance and unwilling to learn.

   Physicists have heard all of the deranged objections to Einsteins theory   
   of relativity and general relativity so many times before that they are   
   not inclined to give any quarter to hand waving wannabes like you.   
      
   The mathematics is a precise detailed description of how things work -   
   natural language is far too ambiguous to make meaningful progress.
