From the Laotse Tao te king:

Hmm, on the subject of Chinese kings...
"A king was pleased with the help of a warrior, and asked what the warrior
would take as reward. The warrior said, a grain of rice on the first square
of a chessboard, on one day, two on a second square, and the second day,
until the board was used up. The story goes that with every doubling to 64
squares, the warrior bankrupted the king within two months."

But I ask: how much rice CAN you fit on a chessboard?

I wonder if Art might recognise that little homily, and my question, as a
parallel to the effect that an antenna need not pointlessly strive for 100%
efficiency, but instead to get a practical and useful propagation or low-
noise collection. If you really want a tiny antenna, never mind inefficiency,
catch what you can and use it. Ok, too many words from me.
