There's some types of green energy work that aren't nearly as pricey. Tilting at windmills is more conventional and less of a reach than tilting at solar panels or cold fusion.

Researchers at RIKEN, Japan's flagship research organization, have developed a ground-breaking new aqueous reagent which literally turns biological tissue transparent.

Looking ahead, Miyawaki's team has set its sights on an ambitious goal. "We are currently investigating another, milder candidate reagent which would allow us to study live tissue in the same way, at somewhat lower levels of transparency.
not weird, but sounds like this anti-cancer virus may be legit. Thank "God."

NASA scientists today announced the discovery of two Earth-sized planets.
The planets were discovered by the Kepler space telescope team.
The two planets are believed to be too close to their sun and thus too hot to be habitable with temperatures ranging from 800 to 1,400 degrees.
Scientists speculate that one of the planets called Kepler 20F might have had liquid water at one time in its history and could have been habitable.
The Kepler science team says this is the first time humanity has been able to detect planets of Earth size in the universe.
