I'm not disputing that this is possible. I'm not disputing that it's being worked on. I AM disputing whether or not this will be accomplished within the next 50 years. Just around the corner? I don't think so. And the picture, a still-shot from a video readily available on youtube and mysteriously removed from the original CNN article is a flat-out, straight-up HOAX.
