Not all is doom and gloom, it would appear
MSimon (aka the hardest workin' IEC fusion blogger in the whole darn blogosphere) has a post up at Classical Values about the navy contract for WB-8. There are a lot of positive implications just from reading the contract. Simon sums them up nicely:
Assuming, of course, that we still have a Navy in a few years. They are so pricy, you know? And we could always just put the Army on boats, right? Isn't health care more important, and a clearer constitutional priority?

What it means about past work: it went well.
What it means for the future: verifying engineering rules
More: there is a plan to test the Hydrogen/Boron 11 fuel combination
More: They must be confident of results since they are planning a WB-9
As they so often say, go read the whole thing. I actually took the time to skim through the contract -- having just a wee bit of experience reading these things -- and I agree with Simon's conclusions. This looks like a lot of behind-the-scenes positive development. My fingers remain crossed, but I guess we'll find out in a few years.What it means for the future: verifying engineering rules
