 +--- Louise Hieronymus suspected that the unknown energy emitted from metals  
 +might be somehow linked to sunlight; since it could be transmitted over  
 +wires, it might have an effect on the growth of plants. 
 +To find out, Hieronymus placed **some aluminum-lined boxes in the  
 +pitch-dark cellar of his Kansas City house**. Some boxes he grounded to  
 +a water pipe and connected by separate copper wires to metal plates on  
 +the outside of the house exposed to full sunlight. Other boxes were left  
 +unconnected. In all of them Hieronymus planted seed grain. In the  
 +connected boxes the seeds grew into sturdy green plants. The seeds in the unconnected boxes had no trace of green and were anemic and  
 +drooping.  
 +This brought Hieronymus to the revolutionary conclusion that what-  
 +ever caused the development of chlorophyll in plants could not be  
 +sunlight itself but something associated with it, which, unlike light, was  
 +transmittable over wires. He had no idea at what frequency this energy  
 +might be located on the electromagnetic spectrum, or even if it was  
 +related to it.
