Yes, unfortunately, most people don't research things they just jump to conclusions.

I looked up the description of that one and it referenced the Live Science website. Here is the article about it, dated 24 February 2008:
Electron Filmed for First Time
Scientists have filmed an electron in motion for the first time, using a new technique that will allow researchers to study the tiny particle's movements directly.
Previously it was impossible to photograph electrons because of their extreme speediness, so scientists had to rely on more indirect methods. These methods could only measure the effect of an electron's movement, whereas the new technique can capture the entire event.
Extremely short flashes of light are necessary to capture an electron in motion. A technology developed within the last few years can generate short pulses of intense laser light, called attosecond pulses, to get the job done.
"It takes about 150 attoseconds for an electron to circle the nucleus of an atom. An attosecond is 10^-18 seconds long, or, expressed in another way: an attosecond is related to a second as a second is related to the age of the universe," said Johan Mauritsson of Lund University in Sweden.
Using another laser, scientists can guide the motion of the electron to capture a collision between an electron and an atom on film.
The length of the film Mauritsson and his colleagues made corresponds to a single oscillation of a wave of light . The speed of the event has been slowed down for human eyes. The results are detailed in the latest issue of the journal Physical Review Letters.
Mauritsson says the technique could also be used to study what happens in an atom when an electron leaves its shell.

When your understanding is flawed from square one, it inevitably leads to all sorts of extreme cases that require round about explanations.
Amen.

It
- Permanently connects every atom in the Universe to all other atoms. The signal goes two ways simultaneously. The EM wave is one-way.
- Has an electric thread and a magnetic thread as opposed to a field.
- Has link length instead of wave length.
- Both have amplitude.
