antiprotons in the belt might one day be harvested to fuel missions that would travel far beyond the solar system, Ah! The sourse of Dilythium Crystals.

I think this would a better article for a Barney Frank joke, considering what he did on live tv.

UHHH....I am happy to say that I don’t know what Barney Frank did on live TV and as I am just retiring for the night, I have to make sure I don’t find out lest I not have brain bleach handy so I am sidling away from my computer now...thinking happy thoughts...here I go!

The best concepts for antimatter propulsion require that the antiprotons be collected and isolated.
SAVE THE ANTIPROTONS!! RESIST CORPORATIST ABUSE OF ANTIPROTONS NOW!
Meetup planned for direct action against corporate interests bend on consuming our precious supply of antiprotons. Meet at the town square at 12:00 noon.

"The results are credible and are consistent with models that previously predicted [the belt's] existence," says James Bickford, senior member of the technical staff at the Draper Laboratory in Cambridge, Massachusetts, who was not part of the study.Wait a minute. What do you mean the "results are credible"?
Either the damn thing exists or it doesn't. Why does it take a study to.....ohhhhhhhh.....now I see. Somebody's job requires more funding or he or she will have to go out and work for a living.
