I couldn't agree more about the magic.  The happening of it, the experience,
is the magic.

I think it was Albert Einstein (Not certain) who mused about the wonder,
mystery and magic
of it when asked to explain radio.

He said that it was like the telegraph, which he thought of as pulling the
tail of a cat in New York,
causing the cat to scream in San Francisco.  Radio, he said, was just like
that but without the cat.
