Default OT, but very interesting.

A long-sought new form of matter has been created for the first time. The matter, called a fermionic condensate, consists of atoms that are ordinarily forbidden to exist in the same quantum state but have been tricked into it by linking into pairs.

Cool!

So...eh...that means....faster electronics or something? Besides the confirmation of the possibility of doing it.
