You get those travelling waves bouncing off those standing waves, and it's
like a laser...they get bigger and bigger until they burn a hole right in
the side of that cable. Then that concentrated beam of energy just takes out
anything in its path. It's focused really sharp, you know, and you darn sure
don't want to be in the way. I once saw a piece of that 75 ohm stuff take
out a squirrel three trees over. He never knew what hit him. Nuts and all --
just gone!
