It at least challenged me to look up the Poynting vector definition, and
see if it applies to non-propagating situations. After all, what's the
problem with such as the "cross-field antenna"?"

	The problem is that is's a lousy radiator!  Many stupid claims of efficiency but the things really don't work very well.
