Just watching it. He brought up something I noticed also, showing the magnet moving the hanging copper plate with the material deposited on it... In like basic physics class you go over eddy currents induced by moving magnets, isn't that all we see there? I can't understand how this showed anything other than that?

Thunderfoot comment though seems ridiculous. It would be irrelevant because it is a ceramic??? lol. They proposed a mechanism how it works! Obviously this would just be the first step. That's like saying the first transistor was irrelevant because we don't use that design anymore.
