saw an article about this and how they were powering a 32" tv completely wireless thru this system- other people have done things like this before but this is a whole company launching a cheaper way to do it

Wasn't that The Prestige? The illusionist didn't have tesla I didn't think. Both amazingly made movies though.

you're so stupid it's funny. Electromagnetism doesn't cause tumors. High intensity Radiation, ultrafine particles, and viruses do.

This has been around for a while, you can by phone chargers and even wii remote chargers that use wireless electricity (isn't it called induction or something?)

wow thats revolutionary. But solar is still alot more practical in my opinion. When we start populating the moon, Im sure its mostly going to be solar and fusion. OH I should post that, they have a pretty legit fusion process now (saw it on daily planet). I thought we were years away from it, but apparently not. By that I mean, we already have a means to fusion power generation. But we input more power than is created.
