Robert, if your email question to me was about this article, the nuclear magnetism is not the issue.  This would appear to work by inducing eddy currents in the electron clouds.  I will look for more information for you. [[User:David E. Volk|David E. Volk]] 13:07, 28 March 2008 (CDT)

Basically, in a conductor, the changing magnetic field induces current, and due to electrical resistance of the conductor, heat is generated.  I believe they use this technique for hardening steel, for example. [[User:David E. Volk|David E. Volk]] 13:14, 28 March 2008 (CDT)
