A Mitsubishi Corp. subsidiary in Japan already can make 40 tons of buckyballs a year and has plans to expand its capacity to 1,500 tons annually within a few years.

I am FLOORED. I thought they were strictly a micro-scale product.

So what could we do with 40 tons of buckyballs if we had them? It still doesn't sound like they are ready to do anything with them.
