You know, there are those things that the world attempts, but rarely achieves. A stomach like Brad Pitt, a set of knockers like Jennifer Aniston (without augmentation), perpetual motion.
Well, for those of us that care or know (because everyone would care if they knew), Fusion power is one of those items. Nuclear Power stations run on Fission, that is splitting apart atoms which then yeild different atoms and some left over bits. The "left over bits" are energy that is yielded as heater, which then drives the generators, which then power your razor. Unfortunately, the "different atoms" are rather toxic, and last for thousands of years.
On the other hand, Fusion power is the joining of atoms to make a third atom. LIke using hydrogen and hydrogen to make helium. This is how the Sun and Fusion Bombs work. The problem with Fusion is that humans haven't been able to master it on a level that allows us to harness the eneregy. Even in Nevada, they don't want to blow up hydrogen bombs to boil water.
But now a set of UCLA Bruins has succeeded in demonstrating DESKTOP FUSION. If this can be perfected, it would solve eneregy problems as we know them. This is good news. And good news from a leftist Blue state that certainly should be independent.
