Editors note:
Star Trek is now a reality! Read this article. It has much to offer as a solution to the end of war and mayhem as we know it. We hope that Congress can see the benefit of saved lives and votes to keep this research on track. Already some of the research is a reality and in use in Iraq according to the article.

By Brian Bergstein, Associated Press Technology Writer

'Directed-energy' pulses can be throttled up or down depending on the situation, much like the phasers on 'Star Trek' could be set to kill or merely stun."
