Bill Gates offers nuclear breakthrough.

[R2x1]

If this recent discovery of a room temperature superconductor turns out to be true, then I think we will see the advent of nuclear fusion happen within the decade.
We will literally be able to tear down every hydro dam, coal plant and wind mill with fusion energy. We will be laughing looking back at nuclear fission should that day arrive which I desperately hope it does.

This latest "discovery" seems to be a more completely self contained unified summation than the majority of its predecessors. They have attempted a scheme of avoiding skepticism from outsiders by doing it, plus confusion and dissent "in-house". Like a lot of Gov't departments, they have diversified to the stage that they no longer require contact with the outside world - except for the Fiscal Inflow of course.  
Alas for their scheme, much wiser persons than me not only make up the overwhelming majority of the universe, they can deliver skepticism that includes some of the unfortunate realities of science.
One thing, we appear to be pretty well practised at "...laughing looking back at nuclear fission..." fiascos already.  The money still pours into it though.

Unlike Bill Gates' plan, this one can at least protect bystanders with foil hats.  We won't need many orange cones at all.
