    Sandia National Laboratories reports controlled fusion

    I love it that the Times article talks about Fusion as a clean alternative to fission power right before they say that the fusion is confirmed by the detection of neutrons. Even better
    Eventually, to generate electricity, the Sandia scientists envision surrounding the fusion chamber with a liquid that heats up by absorbing the neutrons generated by the fusion reaction. The hot liquid would boil water to turn a turbine.
    Now that sounds clean. I think the NYT Science editors had their irony completely burnt out writing credulous copy of Harvard Nurses junk epidemiology and global warming hype.

    Fusion energy is a joke (Score: 0)
    by Anonymous on Thursday, April 10, 2003 @ 17:01:38 UTC
    To turn the finding of the Sandia scientists into a usable power generator it seems like they would end up building somerthing as complex as a conventional nuclear reactor, only without the latter's aura of danger. And an 'fusion internal-combustion engine' that needs millions of watts to get started and God knows how much deuterium and tungsten as fuel and compressing medium, respectively, sounds like some 1950's B movie mad scientist's idea of revolutionary energy.

    Lets face it: the only thing fusion-e promoters have come up after more than half a century of research is just some fancy pictures of monstrous machines and puple hazes of magnetically-compressed plasma.

    Instead of wasting their money in outlandish research on economically unfeasible sources of energy, the DoE and its dreamers should focus on making cars more efficient without endangering their BHP and torque output, something that some Americans believe is as serious an infringment on their rights as regulation of the sale of guns. A good starting place would be the mild-hybrid powerplant design by the British firm Ricardo, more famous for its heavy-duty transmission for rally cars: www.ricardo.com.
