Hi Jones. You callin' me a crank!?!? yeah, well I'm pretty cranky...
The paper was very nice, but the author failed to gate the generator and measure the transition velocity ( aka group velocity ) of the LM mode. He calculates it from the phase velocity measurement, which isn't exactly according to Hoyle. I have no problem with the measurements as such ( I've seen the same thing ) just the interpretation. Try searching the archives of Aperion magazine, I seem to remember more papers there. As well as LANL's site. The work done with active media looked the most promising to me. The vacuum is tenacious stuff.

However, having had a little run at Google, there seems to be a fair number of "non-cranks" espousing this view. This one looks interesting: http://arxiv.org/abs/physics/0009023
