The "magnetic line of force" is always a circle. The only way to
break the circle and actually make it break, rather than just
distort fractally, is to spawn a whole nother loop. Of course,
each loop has to have its own current to hold it open. Or,
maybe, instead of having to be a current, there could be a piece of
charge oscillating up and down inside of it, while, 90deg. out of phase,
the loop expands and contracts.

I wonder if that's what an electron of photon might be like in
the Basic Integrated Grandiose Theory Of Everything, or BIGTOE?
