I believe that the time will come when magnetism, like gravity, is an=20
explainable event that can
be discussed at the dinner table with the 6-year-old twins, just like=20
the weather is now.

I also believe that- in time- mankind will finally abandon foolishness=20
like nuclear-generated &
coal- or oil-generated electricity, and capture it from the sun, as God=20
intended.

I hope mankind survives long enough.
