We have to get over the notion that calling some part of the antenna

I think it was Bob Pease of National Semiconductor who commented along
the lines of "You may be able to trust your mother. If you're
extremely lucky you may be able to trust your government. You can't
trust your ground."

Or, in the short form, "There is no ground". At least, not as a
single, uniform entity with constant (and special) properties.
