Default Sarfatti's typo error on Hal Puthoff's conceptual error on virtualphotons

Whoops!

change


Any calculations that use w = -1 are wrong and if they give a seemingly
correct answer there is some kind of fudge or cancellation of two errors
going on.


to


Any virtual photon calculations that use w = +1/3 are wrong and if they
give a seemingly correct answer there is some kind of fudge or
cancellation of two errors going on.

w = -1 is the correct number to use for virtual photons in Casimir force
calculations.
