Hi All,
         For a new or revised theory to have value, it must:
1. Answer a question that the existing theory does not.
2. Make accurate predictions where the existing theory does not.
3. Be in agreement with the predictions of existing theory in those areas where
existing theory is known to work. (e.g. for slow-moving objects of reasonable
size in a restricted reference frame, Special Relativity and Quantum theory are
in agreement with Newtonian mechanics.)

So far, longitudinal wave theory is 0 for 3.
