The Focus Fusion Society has recently updated their website with news that they have found a licensee, Swedish firm Center for Miljo-och Energiforskning (CMEF), who is giving them 10 million over the course of six years with 600k upfront to help finish experiments being conducted by the Chilean Nuclear Energy Commission. If successful prototypes are made, the plan is to have reactors rolling out of an assembly line by 2012.

could get off our dependence on oil.
BTW, 2012... keeps coming up doesn't it.
