Be the first on your block with your own fusion reactor!!! What a great idea,
we can all have our table top fusion reactor which will create some steam
which will drive the turbines which are connected to a generator -)-). Yep, this
has to be much cheaper than buying electric from those mean old utility 
companies. Just buy the wife a lead jacket when she does the laundry in the 
basement in case those nasty radioactive stuff happens to leak.

Why do you think it would be more efficient to produce your own electricity
instead of buying it from utilities?? What would be the cost of such system,
$5,000 sounds realistic. How about maintanence cost, $500 per year. What about
the radioactive waste, I guess we could water the lawn with it. This is reality.
