Real Micro Fusion Cells?

Micro fusion cells, just like the ones in Fallout, could be right around the corner.
<blockquote>
Scientists say they have achieved small-scale nuclear fusion in a
tabletop experiment, using tried and true techniques that are expected
to generate far less controversy than past such claims. 
This latest experiment relied on a tiny crystal to generate a strong
electric field. While the energy created was too small to harness cheap
fusion power, the technique could have potential uses in medicine,
spacecraft propulsion, the oil drilling industry and homeland security,
said Seth Putterman, a physicist at the University of California at Los
Angeles. 
</blockquote>
If this pans out, it could have some serious implications for global
society. Fusion powered cars, refridgerators, planes, computers,
seeminly anything. Maybe even fusion powered Chrysalis
Highwaymen! You can go and read the whole article <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/7654627/" target="_self">here</a>.

Every year there's someone claiming he has experimentally proved that cold fusion is possible. Nothing new here.

You never know you know, or do you.
Cold fusion would be nice but you think opec won't kick up a stink, the only reason you don't see many fuel cell cars around is because big oil companies buy up the rights to these vehicles (is that spelled correctly?) in order to survive, people with power will do anything to keep thaty power, ever played a game called fallout?

Astute observation, D5it-m38 ! There are certainly similarities . . .

Well, an IP check didn't come up with any clues.
