And a clear indicator that whoever proposed it failed to learn how 
Beverages work! It all goes back to Mr. Beverage's original patent more 
than a century ago.

Beverages DEPEND on lossy earth beneath them, and DXpeditioners who have 
tried them over high conductivity ground near the sea quickly learned 
that they don't work.
