require changing the laws of physics. It is possible for it to start on
one path, and then jump to the other, but that would require a change in
conditions during the duration of spark, making the other path a more
appealing path to electricity. Not likely, given the brief duration of
time and the close proximity of the electrodes.

I'm definitely not promoting 'em or defending 'em but did they claim to
produce two sparks (I don't recall seeing an ad so I really don't know)?
In the reading I've done I thought that their big claim was that the spark
was unshrouded. This is what the fork was for. Regardless, the courts put
the whammy on 'em and put a stop to all their "claims". I'm stickin' to
Champion Truck Plugs.
