...enough time to do actual chemistry and understand their properties. It could happen, say the researchers, within 5 to 10 years, if a dedicated accelerator could ever get funded. That's the goal of all this work - there's pretty much no conceivable practical application for any of this stuff...
...east, at Jean Charles' winery just behind the medieval church, the picture couldn't be more different. Charles usually sells his entire output to a local merchant, who bottles and markets it for him. But this year, for the first time, the merchant won't touch the stuff.

The propaganda machine is our subject matter...

We're reduced to a society that is sitting here arguing about who used the N word 30 years ago. You see grown men doing this stuff in order to get into a power position, and it's really kind of disgraceful...
