"THE
                HERTZ WAVE THEORY OF WIRELESS TRANSMISSION MAY BE 
                KEPT UP FOR A WHILE, BUT I DO NOT HESITATE TO SAY THAT 
                IN A SHORT TIME IT WILL BE RECOGNIZED AS ONE OF THE MOST 
                REMARKABLE AND INEXPLICABLE ABERRATIONS OF THE SCIENTIFIC 
                MIND WHICH HAS EVER BEEN
                RECORDED IN HISTORY."

        One of the things we will find is that Hertz or transverse
        electromagnetic waves are strictly mass waves in a charged mass particle
        medium.
                   For
        example, transverse EM waves do not, and CAN not, exist in vacuum. 
        Vacuum EM waves are longitudinal waves of compression and
        rarefaction.  What is compressed and rarified is the virtual
        particle flux that comprises vacuum itself.  Vacuum EM waves in
        this virtual flux are just like sound waves in air -- in the flux of
        molecules and atoms that comprise the atmospheric gas.
                   Nikola
        Tesla, of course, knew this and he frequently pointed out the falsity of
        the accepted transverse wave theory.  Here is one Tesla quote, for
        example, taken from The Electrical Experimenter.  (PAUSE)
                   Almost
        every scientist -- even the "Tesla bugs" -- have thought Tesla
        wrong in his adamant opposition to the idea of Hertzian waves in the
        vacuum.
                   As we
        shall see, Tesla was right and all the present scientists and textbooks
        are wrong .
