Yeah, I wonder when we're gonna see cable that's pumped down to a vacuum in the center? :)
Start pumping.. :) Actually, to my surprise, the refractive index in air is quite close to a vacuum - so I figured we could set up a laser link between NY and London, with 'yo mama' sitting in a boat in the middle of the Atlantic to give it the required bend... ps. that concludes my very poor attempt at humour.
