Default Current across the antenna loading coil - from scratch

Check my article that describes the controversy, shows some proof of reality
and then efforts of the "gurus" to deny it and "reason" why it can't be so.

The problem is that back in 1953 in QST article there was erroneous
conclusion/statement made, which propagated through the books, until W9UCW
measured the current across the loading coils and found that there is
significant drop from one end to the other, and the rest is (ongoing)
history

Not that I could fan the flames any more anyhow, but just what was the
original discussion about anyhow?

As in Cecil says what, and those disagreeing with him say what?

I'm curious how something that doesn't seem that complex can generate so
many weeks of acrimony and vitriol! I don't know the answer - but then
again, I'm not really sure what the question is. But I do know where to
look it up....
