Obviously anything energy related. Otherwise, the US is in for a long economic recovery.

prepare to have your balls roasted off

it will never work

yeah im not too thrilled with wireless power delivery, i think that violates my rights if someone is sending potentially dangerous signals where im at

id prefer super batteries, that sounds much more reliable and safe

honestly, fusion power

but it will always be 50 years out

i would be happy with private reprocessing with NRC oversight (and more fuel flexibility)

quantum computing and biological computing

(available to the masses)

10/6/2008 8:45:32 PM

much much better batteries (for laptops, cars, ipods, whathaveyou)

girls i can make with my computer

weird science!

Lets face it, if everyone could make a perfect partner with computers and have them generated by a computer, this world would be a much happier and productive place

remember the sex scene in demolition man?

that's one i'm NOT looking forward to.

3D virtual reality simulations would be enough (like from that Tom Cruise movie), so you can have sex with virtual self of anybody you desire.

(as long as you can place pressure and heat transducer pads all over your body that make it feel like real sex, and are good enough to make you orgasm)
