======================================= MODERATOR'S COMMENT:
Pat, I know you mean well, but in the future, try to include at least SOME commentary. Things are slow, so I'll approve this one. :-) GdM

This is an introductory-level interview by Seed Magazine with Franklin
Chang-Diaz, who regular readers of s.s.tech will recall as the man
behind the VASIMR thruster project.

It's an interesting read if you're not familiar with VASIMR, but he
doesn't describe any interesting new results or go into much technical
detail.

Verdict: probably not worth your time.

Peter
