Random Waves of Insight

I was watching some dated late night PBS programming about cold fusion, thoroughly enjoying both the lack of commercials and the lack of pleas for a donation, and I realized something. Cold fusion seems to have left the group of potential energy solutions.

It makes sense when you read the first paragraph of Wikipedia's page for cold fusion. The basic idea is that no solid results have emerged yet.

I remember watching Val Kilmer in "The Saint," and seeing cold fusion revolutionize Russia. Can you imagine if everybody had access to free, unlimited power? Free energy! That would change everything...

I hope that in the next 50 years, our energy concerns are completely reversed by some revolutionary development, and instead of worrying about where to find energy, we're focused on how to use the overly abundant fuels of the future.
