I understand free electrons do not remain free for long. But does it
mean there are no electrons free in the earth.
In one of Tesla's experiments, he was trying to transmit electicity
through the earth by simulating a lightning strike. Or so i
understand. I know he didn't succeed (or did he?)
Now if the earth neutralises charges so well/quickly, was that
experiment doomed to failure from the start.
