Hi Bill,
 
Sorry, I didn't realize you were the official spokesperson for what or how  
the physics community thinks. I'll have to check through all my old AAPT  mags.

Thanks!    I read that long ago, but didn't dig up the Corum's paper to
check  everything.

Terry's major beef centers on engineering: their paper is  irrelevant to
coilers.  I totally agree.  And General Relativity  is irrelevant to
mechanical engineers.  Their's is a science paper,  and the situations
where it becomes important are with things like general  EM theory, or
Tesla's World System, and NOT the situations ever encountered  in building
lightning generators.   For example, multi-mode  operation is a fascinating
physics phenomenon, but for engineers whose goal  is to increase spark
length and efficiency, operation at higher modes is a  useless distraction
which needs to be halted.   As Terry  says,running a coil at upper
harmonics does not let them "operate  acceptably."   That's very much an
engineering  viewpoint.   Now a scientist *only* wants to examine  the
"unacceptable" operation, since that's the stuff that's outside the  box,
and not part of any coilers'  knowledge.
