I have heard of cold brewing.....what is cold fusion?

You know that fusion is hot (h-bombs, the sun), but cold fusion was the 'holy grail' of unlimited benign power. The evil oil companies bought up all the rights, and have buried it.

This'll probably turn out like those americans who'd discovered teleportation a few years back. Meaning we'll never hear about it again.

Now isn't that something.....unlimited supply of energy? Side affect of this? Oh yeah, I thought the closer you reach the speed of light the heavier the object gets therefore we can not reach that speed or am I off on this?

I thought the problem was that an infinite amount of energy was required and as one approaches c the energy just isn't available anywhere in the universe. Maybe this is where cold fusion comes in.

Come to think of it my lights were flickering a few days ago:hmm:

I think you have your A's and H's mixed:

A-bombs, or fission bombs;
H-bombs, thermonuclear bombs, or fusion bombs.
