I had seen an article years ago, Chuck, in the Journal of Irreproducible 
Results that had a detailed description of the reverse lightbulb, or 'Darkbulb.'

Apparently these are not commercially feasible yet and not very many prototypes 
exist.  One can see a photograph of on at this link -

Or a more full description at THIS link -

You'll note that it's range is limited.  This is because it was photographed 
after it had been turned off, but before the electricity had fully spent 
itself.  Had it been left in full 'on' position, the photo would have merely 
been just black.

I'm currently appealing to the inventor to see if he can turn his focus to 
something which I think holds great commercial promise.  The Reverse 
Microwave.    Just think, such a thing could cool one's drinks quickly, freeze 
ice cubes instantaneously, and so on.   I have suggested that they should 
investigate merely reversing the power supply polarity, but I am merely a 
musician and suspect it may be slightly more complex than this.

The world is full of wonder.
