Not only does Howard’s new source of energy eliminate the need for burning fossil fuels, but also, he can create a particle beam shield that will protect the United States and its allies from a Ballistic Missile attack. Unfortunately, this same device can be refined to create a beam that will silently kill hundreds of innocent people. Stephan will resort to anything to get his hands on Howard’s Killing Machine.
My Comment:
We already have such energy sources. Solar related sources, tidal forces, and geothermal heat sources to say nothing of heat produced by nuclear fission. We have had these sources for decades. The only think lacking is the will to deploy them and to make the appropriate investments. You can thank your government and the corporate "welfare queens" for that.
As to a particle beam defense against nukes, how do you keep nukes from being walked in, flown in, trucked in, shipped in? And what about chemical and biological weapons that can produce as many casualties as any nuke?
