Yes. But "free" power makes that less of an issue. For example the steel structure will become embrittled and useless (hydrogen voids, etc) but it is still essentially nearly all elemental iron. Just accept that iron that is part of a fusion machine isn't much good for anything else afterwards, and re-smelt it into structurally sound material again. -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Introducing AppDynamics Lite, a free troubleshooting tool for Java/.NET Get 100% visibility into your production application - at no cost.
