Just a quick comment. The spinner or "electric" pin wheel effect is
nn't caused by electron reaction forces. They just don't have enough mass.
It is repulsion or attraction of the massive ions which casues this effect.

So does this mean that the RF at the tips ionizes the atmosphere and then
repells the ions? If this is true, that probably implies that in a hard
vacuum that the spinner would stop. Correct?
