Haven't you seen the "healing" and reassembly property? Haven't you seen the difference from mercury?

You must have never seen a Terminator movie or TV show ;)

Seems to me that this flexible antenna is going to need some auxillary support at lengths more that several feet. In which case the "old" guyed wire antenna performs the same function and probably a heck of a lot cheaper.

I thought this was going to be something to replace may roof top antenna which occasionally get mangled in storms -- guess not.

Also not quite sure I understand this "healing" property. If you don't cut through the contaiment slieve the metal is simply compressed -- no big deal. But if you "partially cut through" it, doesn't the liquid metal run out?

What's so different about this antenna that simply pouring mercury into a plastic/vinyl tube and sealing the ends?
