Most Englishmen were also expecting biscuits and cheese on the Moon...
And so too apples bopped people on the head because the Earth sucked.

However, the German physicist George Simon Ohm found that a current
flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the electrical
force that produces it. i.e. E=IR

So the other fellow with the ohmic and non ohmic materials discussion is
trying to pull a fast one. i.e. a troll

AH C'mon, we've been calling it Ohm's law since elementary school. Now
AH you're gonna tell us we're all wrong? If enough people call it Ohm's
AH law, then it's Ohm's law. : - )

.... Is reactance then illusory? No, it just appears that way...
