The Cafferty File at CNN is asking:
Is Al Gore’s call for carbon-free electricity in 10 years doable or “ridiculous”?
I posted something short on Polywell. Here’s a chance to raise awareness. Or is that too risky?

I have posted to other sites in the past, but never got much of a response.

I have been posting to other sites for about a year and a half.
When I first started "no one" knew of Polywell. Now a days I am often the 2nd or 3rd Polywell poster.
Awareness is being raised.
BTW this (Al Gore) is just another bit of evidence that if the results from WB-7 are positive it will get showered with money.
I do think 10 years is way too optimistic.

I think the best we can hope for in 10 years is to know whether this will do the job, and to see a path forward.

Ten years is WAY too soon.
Think of it this way. I have a '97 Chevy Tahoe that is my trailer-towing vehicle. It will serve me for another 3-5 years because I put very few miles on it. We would not turn over our entire transportation fleet in 10 years, even if there was a viable alternative TODAY.
If Polywell was everything we could possibly dream - the power grid could be fossil fuel free in 20 - 30 years.
That would free up the oil for transportation.
Drill here, drill now, hope for polywell success!
