The Meissner Field is a magnetic field which, among other things, does not have the traditional north or south polarity. This is the reason many physicists strongly prefer to call it the Meissner Effect -- thus avoiding the issue of having a directionally challenged magnetic field. At the same time, however, the effect can not be dismissed inasmuch as Edmunds Scientific now sells kits with which to demonstrate the Meissner effect.
