<<Dr Hed is much more up on this technology then I am. I would rather hear from him.

OT:
Are we all still out to shoot down Ron, or the message Ron delivers'.>>

Only the message. And that message which I attack is that gold is worthless, and those who produce it are the very, most absolute embodiment of all that is evil and or feebleminded. You see, he has gone so far as to attack not only the commodity, the concept, but also it's producers.
Those producers have the bulk of the world's silver reserves & as every economist has railed endlessly about the total lack of inflation as shown by the crashing CRB and lower price of gold, silver has(at some times) quietly rallied from $4.28 to above the $5.15 range.

If as some believe, things will get very bad, then it seems an investment in these producers of gold make good sense, if rather, you prefer to see the glass as half full(as I do) then the silver reserves
(and other minerals in other cases) of select producers make them a better than fair bet(IMHO). Who knows, perhaps if things get good enough, even the gold will do better.

But some producers will do well no matter.

btw, how fine can these super conductors be drawn and can an electric current be induced (positive or negative) into them via a magnet?
copper is not only used in transmission, but also in generation and power supply(motors).

did no one else note the spike in copper prices(in history) when we changed from steam locomotives to GE style diesel electromotive train engines? It is also important to note, these units will last a great deal longer(if history repeats) than our current internal combustion engines. So, it will be a few year(4-10?) spike then drop way off.
