The amazing thing is that some part of the government (yes, the 
military) had the resources to support R&D on this project for 12 
years. It paid off handsomely. No toxic waste products (or at least, 
none mentioned), and look at the price: $3.75/square foot, as opposed 
to $20-25 for conventional plastic-blasting.

Now, if they could only make a good tasting cup of instant coffee... 
or how 'bout, pushing residential fuel cells through a similar R&D?

I'm ready for hot'n'cold stripping of piano cases, especially those 
victorian scrolled desks.
