One thing that has always interested me is taking the breakthroughs of today just one step further and seeing where that leads us. For example, we know that cold fusion is possible, as it happens in our sun. We just need to heat an atom to the point where it start to heat all the atoms around it, and VOLA! Endless energy! The LHC in France is attempting (so far unsuccessfully) to merely START this sort of reaction with lasers. But what if, say ten years from now, cold fusion reactors were being built in every major city? What would clean, abundant power for all really mean? It would seem that abundant, virtually-free energy is not too far off, and if such a thing becomes a reality, it would drastically change the world from the way we live now. Excellent article!
