I'm thinking this one might have lost a little in translation from scientific English to Journalese. How does one "transport" a stream of photons?
To: Billthedrill
Well, you PROVE transport by INTENTIONALLY introducing (and recording)random fluctuation in the beam. Then you do whatever you had to do (probably a quantum coupling effect) to "teleport" the beam, and record the fluctuations in the beam. . . Then compare the tapes. . . .

I'm thinking this one might have lost a little in translation from scientific English to Journalese. It's so uncontaminated by actual physics that I can't meaningfully comment on it.
