Radiation from a Uniformly Accelerated Charge and the Equivalence Principle

We argue that purely local experiments can distinguish a stationary charged particle in a static gravitational field from an accelerated particle in (gravity-free) Minkowski space. Some common arguments to the contrary are analyzed and found to rest on a misidentification of ``energy''.
