Excerpt: "...I was told that they were trying to actually see what happens in their device with some glass with a melting point of 1500degc. They saw it light up like the sun and then it melted the glass. This just took a second or two. I was told what their working theory was, but they really dont know what is going on. They have brought in several academics with a myraid of explanations ..."
