That’s what they told us at UT. I was never worried. But think about it. That was fifty years ago. We would have gotten much further along if the greenies hadn’t stopped us. The reason I responded was to make the point that the Chinese did not invent the technology. I was there when some nutjob at Texas A&M claimed to have a sustained reaction for as long as he wanted. He lied.

Exactly. Thanks for making this detail known.
