"That said, it’s always an obligation of us science types to throw in a layman paragraph and/or define all the acronyms that tend to litter technical documents."

Well, it was either post it with minimal comments, or wait 'til the weekend to get the time to assemble such a commentary. I figured getting it out ASAP would be preferable, even if "rough".

I saw the wiki poage was updfated a few weeks ago after a very long period of practically no news. Great times. Philo would be proud; the Tokamak folks still don’t have a usable neutron source and he built one 50 years ago.

I still have not grasped how the power is to be reliably harnessed though. Still way off IMO, but visible as opposed to the tokamak boondoggle.
