Financial Times: US scientists boost clean power hopes with fusion energy breakthrough

[Chainfire]

1. I can't help but to think back to my time in elementary school, when they told us that with

nuclear energy fueled power plants that were coming on line, that electricity would become too cheap to even meter. Times change, don't they? I have heard promises on fusion for most of my life as well. In a few months we will probably hear that the data on the new process was incorrect and that they actually did not net energy output.

The last really commercial fusion was in 1928 When Reese's cups were invented.
