Subject: Non-Radiative Evanescent Waves are back in the news... 

By using a weakly coupled resonant receiving coil 1/2 meter in diameter, 
the research team that rediscovered induction and Tesla wireless power 
transmission last year have successfully lit a 60 watt bulb 2 meters 
away from a transmitting  coil. I wonder if the lamp was continuously 
illuminated or a flash (when the lamp was connected across the fully 
"rung up" receiving LC circuit). The researches claim 40% efficiency. 
Will be interesting to get the complete story instead of this snippet:
