Dear Russ, I wish I had Ray Kurzwei's or Dean Kamen's brain to read and understand all of this blog. Unfortuately, I have mine. Wow! This blog is filled with ideas to create more ideas. (I read Ray's Singularity book.) My new book is entitled, The World's Most Creative (And Dangerous) Quote Book at www.knowords.com. I think when its printed it should go into Chris Anderston's TED Conference gift bag. I can dream; that's what creative people do. I went to your website;I may add something like your Wish List to my site. I just retired from teaching, so it's all about the money.
I'm adding your site to my Creatography at the back of my book. Feel free to link my site if you want to. N. Wylie Jones

"Famous quotations are seeds for creativity, spark plugs for ideas, and ammunition for debate."
N. Wylie Jones

Because of the insane economy, I'm getting beta-blurbs (my coinage) for my pre-agent book. I'm getting famous creative people to send me blurbs for the book; I'll take these with a recommendation I have from a famous writer. I'll also take the requests I get for my book which isn't a published book yet. I want a major publisher; I have no money, so self-publishing is out.

Here is something else to add to your list. Fusion power in 5 years. Funded by the US Navy:

Bussard's IEC Fusion Technology (Polywell Fusion) Explained

Why hasn't Polywell Fusion been fully funded by the Obama administration?
