How soon before Namibian “scientists” are given credit for all of the discoveries?

"...hybrid particles of light and matter..."
If Energy = the Speed of Light times Mass squared (E=MC2), what the hell is a hybrid of "light and matter"?

If Energy = the Speed of Light times Mass squared (E=MC2)... I believe that E=MC² is Energy = Mass times the speed of light squared.

I thought for a moment they’d discovered actual Vibranium.

"Mass times the speed of light squared"
Thanks Sam - I'm back-asswards today - doesn't look promising.

If this tech depends on slabs cut from preformed gem quality crystals it will always be a rare and expensive venture. Looks like they are rarer than diamonds, and the waste from cutting will be substantial. It will never be in everyone’s home computer.

To: Red Badger
I agree they can... If they can get the polarization qualities the same in a synthesized crystal. Looks like the polarization is the key?

“Ancient Namibian Stone”
Just about all stones are “ancient”. How ancient is this one?
To: Psalm 73
No worries. We all have our moments.
Sometimes I get on people's nerves (wifey) because, after all, I am a Nitpicker. Bad habit. Especially with a keyboard within easy reach. =;^)
