Maby it'll work? But still have disposil issues when it wears out.??

 

[roscoe]

maybe. They aren't saying what will make it work, or if they have already been successful.
The small size is a great concept, but small isn't the answer it will work.
We will see.

WOW, think space now.
Sure kicks ion drive in the rear.

In 20 years there may be one hanging on a transom somewhere.....We're gonna run out of oil/petroleum eventually and another power source will arise to replace it....I guess....I'll probably be gone by then so it's just speculation....

Fusion would be great. In its simplest form, 2 hydrogen atoms are "mushed" together and form helium and release energy.Hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe.

That's all well and good, but the question is, what are you going to do with all that extra helium? Can't eat it, can't drink it, can't breath it, only need so many party balloons...

You pipe it under the car so we finally have flying cars. Besides with all the extra helium in the air....just think about a fender bender, everyone yelling at each other,.... with cartoon voices. :argue: :laugh:

It could be used to fill the vacuum in Sarah Palin's head...
