Like a mirage, always 5 years in the future...

But it is coming closer. 40 years ago it was 20 years in the future.

Or good 3D movies!

We have clean energy already and it's available today.

Sorry, I'm not trying to be as confrontational as this sounds: do you mean that we should stop research into other avenues of clean power generation because we've figured out some different methods?

Not at all. It's a fascinating topic and i really hope they get it to work some day. But fusion and also nuclear energy are often touted as a solution for climate change. Which both very much are not.

we have achieved something so no need to keep trying to achieve something greater!

Nice straw man, pal. That's not what I said at all.

It could easily be interpreted that way

If you say "X brings the dream of Y closer" you imply that Y doesn't exist. I just pointed out that that's not correct. The BBC article isn't actually bad but that title is dumb.

This race reminds me of the blue diod race.
