Waynesville Senior Garrett Hudgel has been studying at the Warren County Career Center in the field of robotics.  This morning he showed off a side-project he's been working on...Wireless Electricity!  According to Garrett, the positively charged air around the coils created an energy which "excited" the argon and mercury inside the lightbulb forcing it to light up.
