The folks at free electrons have announced the release of their android training materials under the creative commons attribution share alike 3. This flow of electrons is an electric current but the copper atoms themselves do not move so the copper wire does not vanish.
I have used a copper wire as an antenna for the coupling with the earth atmosphere and not with the ground as in the stefans test, the sucked free electrons act as a trigger for the xenon flash. The script has the modprobe program stop before actually loading the module, and just print out.
