You just can't pose a better question than that, it escapes me how
anyone can find fault with such a question(s).

Once we deal with the problem of rf waves appearing both as waves and
photons and get our minds wrapped around how this is (truly understand
rf), interesting things could happen.


Both posts pretty much ignore that the research WAS done with RF (9
GHZ).

Fellows, try reading the original work rather than the boys from MENSA
comic book editions.


The original wasn't a whole lot more satisfying,(I almost thought it
was an abstract) but at least it didn't have the touchy feely science of
the Telegraph's report.
