I read that link you posted.
And I think you are spreading propaganda that the author did not state. He talked about a theoretical high voltage that couldn't exist unless some impossible conditions could be created. The high voltage he talked about was only a hypothetical example he used to try to explain how small antennas can tune long wavelengths. His point was that if a zero resistance circuit with infinite Q could be built, then hypothetically, it could develop a high ac voltage under certain conditions. He was quick to point out that this high voltage does not exist in the real world for small resonant loop antennas:
"Note: the above phenomenon can only occur for an ideal LC circuit, where the resistance of the coil is zero and where the Q of the circuit is infinite".
"...Keep in mind that this device is a relatively small affair sitting in your back yard. It's not a 1KHz quarter-wave dipole tower 25 miles tall. There's no huge antenna, so we would not expect to find any huge level of electric power appearing in the circuit". Read it here for yourself:

Do you really believe this author was saying there is high voltage in your non-powered backyard loop and capacitor, or that they can generate ions in the air?
Do you expect us to believe he was telling us your back yard loop and capacitor is generating some high voltage or ions?
I think it is easier to believe goldfinder's explanation than an explanation that spreads false propaganda and relies on misquoting what others say.
