Man, I'm really hoping this works out, and if they do they get a healthy amount of investors!

I get the feeling like Nuclear Fusion could just be a pipe dream, but here's hoping.

well, the size will be too small to blow up the world (acually, larger power samples are used in H-bombs), but the control of nuclear fusion a la' sun would be a monumental achievement-a huge source of power at our fingertips.

Excellent, looks like we're on target with SimCity's projection of having fusion power by 2050.
