This is interesting. Theoretical physicists think that it might be
possible to travel faster than light by warping the fabric of
space-time directly in front of, and behind, the space ship. Ships
are vaguely on topic, no?

Yes, yes, it's from Fox News and who knows. Interesting concept in
any event.


You never heard of a warp drive before? Where have you been?


===

Of course, everyone's heard of warp drive. Up until recently however
it has been mostly science fiction with an emphasis on *fiction*. It
might still be fiction but at least a few people are thinking
seriously about it. That's news worthy don't you think?


Just joshing. Sure, it's news-worthy. But it's still science fiction.
I want to see a working model before I suit up.
And I prefer teleportation anyway, as long as the flies are kept out.
