I am both doubtful and hopeful—especially when it comes to Polywell and Focus Fusion. 😉

Unfortunately, it seems we’ve already seen the last of the quarterly updates from EMC2. April 30th has come and gone, and there is no new report from EMC2. Hopefully we will find out soon if the Navy has signed a new contract to fund the project. Of course, a new contract would probably not be funded through the Recovery Act and, therefore, would not have the quarterly reporting requirements that EMC2’s previous contract did, so we wouldn’t hear any news unless and until either EMC2 or the Navy felt like reporting it. (Apart, of course, from how much money the new contract is for, and what, in general terms, is its purpose.)
