I wonder how soon audiophiles will employ it to see if their multi-thousand dollar wires actually help more electrons flow through them.  Here's the article.

Peter, obviously not just the number, but even more, the ability to detect the direction of the electron travel should be invaluable in measuring the "high end" cables with the arrows on them.

It's not that the high end cables allow MORE electrons to get through -- that would be pretty easy to measure with current equipment -- it's that the high end cables allow a better CLASS of electrons to get through
