    We’re still in the period of hype where naysayers are put on the shelf in order to push the narrative. Remember solar panel roads?

    My money says they have a thin layer of magnet coating a material creating the illusion of the messneir effect. A parlor trick with a very long crafting time. People want it to be true, and there will be conspiracy circles about the government locking down the research.

    I hope I’m wrong. But I’m not driving on any solar roads.

      How much stock do you place in the simulations suggesting superconducting properties likely adhere?

      I may be misunderstanding the recap so please feel free to correct.
