Sherrill, a system can be resonate and radiate very little power.
Low VSWR on a transmission line usually means lower loss and
more radiation where you want it.

your second paragraph seems to conflict with 
the principles of conjugate impedance matching as described  
by Mr. Walter Maxwell in the QST articles?  Mr. Maxwell 
explained that it is not important that the actual antenna 
itself is resonant as long as the system is resonate.
