How can we be sure that this "Tesla wave" traveled over the earths surface? I am suspicious because the ratio of acquired speed is closely related to well known constant Pi [3.14159]. If we compare the distance to opposite side of sphere (ok, earth is not perfect sphere, but close enough), then distance through it would be "d" (from diameter), but distance around it (half the length of circle line) would be "Pi/2 * d". "Pi/2 = 1.571", awful close for sure.
I bet that if we would describe this situation as if the signal have traveled trough the globe rather than around, we would get precisely speed of light "c". Sad to say, but this proof of signal traveling faster than light doesn't convince me at all.
Btw, have read pretty much from Meyl too, haven't found anything better. My thoughts about him can be found in another topic, titled "Faraday vs Maxwell".
