I have heard that going down the center of the inductive loops is the best way to trigger them, but it doesn't usually work for me. I tried going down the loop today on the loop I would most like to trigger, but it didn't work either. No carbon here, I commute on a touring bike.
A) I don't think he was really trolling - trolls are just trying to make people angry - he was trying to make people think.
B) Center of inductive loop is NOT the best - you want to be on the wire. If it's a figure 8, then you drive on the center wire, which is sort of in the middle.
