Direct Current used the whole cross section of the wire. As the frequency of AC goes 
up the flow crawls out to the surface of the wire. At higher frequencies the energy 
tends to wander off out into space. If the electrons all stayed inside the wire life 
wouldn't be nearly as interesting. You'd also need a preety long extension chord to 
get from the transmitter to the receiver.
happy trails - remember, it's all FM
