That was an interesting read certainly. But when I clicked on the link, in the back of my mind I thought it was about Mercedes Benz... God only know's why?
Still, I'm not getting my hopes up. Sounds to me like another 'Cold Fusion'. I don't think we'll see clean, limitless energy for everybody until long after I've rotted away...

 's I have had a design for one of these for years now and the only thing that held me back was funding, or much rather a lack of it.

It would be joyously ironic if history remembers this time not for Isis, or Ebola, or the Great Recession, but the time Mankind discovered workable fusion. From my mouth to God's ears baby.

We get promises of Fusion in five years every few years. This has been the case since the 60's
Don't get me wrong, I hope that this technology will be cracked, but I have heard too many tales of breakthroughs.
