  Sir Joseph LARMOR showed in 1897 that an oscillating electric charge emits
radiation energy proportional to (acceleration)$^2$. At first sight,the result
appears to be valid for arbitrary accelerations. But, perpetual uniform
acceleration has been a case of nagging doubts, as radiation reaction vanishes
and the equivalence principle, as also conformal symmetry of Maxwell equations
each require nil energy loss. Special hypotheses are devised by some to justify
the assumption of radiation loss for both perpetual and non-perpetual (uniform)
accelerations which, as in the case of (uniform) velocities, are really
different. The problem is here simply resolved by an explicit computation to
show absence of radiation for the perpetual case and by illustrating that
Larmor formula makes sense {\it only if} there is {\it change} in acceleration,
just as kinetic energy has nontrivial quantitative sense, only when there is
change in velocity.
