    		If it had been permissivity I might have agreed with you, but no.
    The answer to this involves someone called Fredholm if that helps.

    		Yay! Excellent Minuscule!
    If Love's Equation had to appear somewhere in science it had to be in electrostatics, the one where surfaces touch and sparks fly.

    		Was wondering how this one would pan out, while I was away. Glad you weren't thinking about Stokes Law. ;)
