Boston Globe Hype: MIT "Discovers" Nikola Tesla's 1889 Wireless-Electricity Gimmick

Wow! A lightbulb can be lighted by electricity without wires from seven feet away!

In the Globe tomorrow: Harvard scientists successfully invent "that bzzz thing" that shoots electricity.

Thanks to OCD.

I'm sure that there's something to the MIT discovery that's new -- but the dopey Boston Globe reporter apparently doesn't understand what that might be, As Dave from Garfield-Ridge would say of the "discovery" as described: It's old.
