The words ‘discontinuous compression’ and ‘continuous tension’ than ought to be reminiscent of the problem which the young man brought down to me about the two concepts of the phenomenon of light or radiation in general, or the corpuscular and the wave, one being continuous and the other discontinuous.
We find the corpuscular a discontinuous accounting and the wave a continuous. I found the continuous in universe to be tensional and the discontinuous to be the compressional of the energy, or the corpuscular. . . . I would say probably that the behaviors of the light phenomena may "be properly explained in terms of the corpuscular theory and so forth. . . then we will be able in the light to have synchronization of the corpuscles as not touching one another and yet have two beams going what had seemed continuous away but really tensionally and therefore not really have any problem of anterference. . . .
