Me too, if I was designing "paper" antennas. 

Caution to antenna modeling cult followers: it ain't exactly in real life as 
it is on the paper as produced by modeling software. Modeling programs are a 
great tool, but far from perfect. We see proliferation of super antenna designs 
too many times taken as a gospel. In reality there are more variables that 
models don't see and limitations in modeling certain situations. There seems to 
be whole new army of "antenna experts" based on modeling, be very critical in 
swallowing their designs.
