Wait'll you see what I'm working on next. Ever wonder what'd happen if you "convinced" the entangled virtual partical pairs along a demarcated line that they were actually all anti-particals? Then had them interact with real-space particals already extant inside a mass the size of an asteroid?

Test cases show they should just kinda fall apart along the seam. Of course, energy requirements are phenomenal. We'd need to dedicate a significate portion of our reactor output to the task. Think of it as a "Death Star Superlaser" that doesn't actually blow anything into tiny pieces. Just Ginsu's them.

Hi, Kids!

Walp...I'm not leaving until Thursday morning, so you have another day to put up with me. *snort*

Does that require laser input, or electrical?

We can supply either one, but I was thinking the elegance of several hundred laser beams coalescing into a Jedi-like "light saber" would be awesome!

We've seen similar collected beams in "Independence Day" and on the Death Star.
