Indeed, even if it is pure balognium, I'd still like to see what happens when we generate insanely huge magnetic fields.

If nothing else, it provides an excuse to try new things.

I am hopeful that some day we will discover some means to travel between the stars in reasonable amounts of time. But it's not likely to happen in any of our lifetimes. Centuries, maybe many centuries. But if we decide it's not possible and stop dreaming and looking for ways, it will never happen. I will be happy if in my lifetime the prospect of space tourism becomes a possibility for more then just the idle super-rich. I'd like to take a ride in a rocket some day.

Well, if this guy's theories are right, it sounds like it would solve all sorts of unanswered questions in physics. I sure hope he's right!

Sometimes I wish that Feynman was still alive. I'd really be interested in hearing what his opinion is on this theory, I'm sure he would have been able to tell us very quickly if it's a bunch of nonsense or if it's worth investigating.
