Use it pretty much as optical refraction coefficient; the more it is, the
less the speed.

Er --> 1 is free space (and in a vacuum for the purists) and you are then
moving at the speed of light!

So yes, signals travel faster the lower the Er (everything else remaining
the same).

Folks,
  IN general , is it true or false, signals travel faster the lower the Er
,, or not //// why or whynot?
