Missed opportunity bingo: IBM's wasted years and the $92bn cash splurge

RE: Missed opportunity bingo: IBM's wasted...

Bingo article isn't without a bit of irony. In the race to save itself and reach safe harbor, IBM has wasted its most valuable resource. People are revenue. The 80% of revenue is used to pay salaries and benefits of hard-working IBM employees who return with the ideas that drive innovation. Without fresh ideas, innovation and incentives. The company is BM (Brick and Mortar)

Aluminum and Iron creation hypothesis

In nuclear fusion if you take two(2) Aluminum 26 atoms and fuse em together you almost get Iron 59. Seven(7) protons short and a whole bunch of energy. Explains why the Fe shortage. Alternatively, fission (eg. split) an Iron 59 and you can get two(2) Aluminum 26 atoms plus a few protons neutrons photons, gluons, quarks and electrons and double aluminum flying around making pretty lights and fireworks for alien astronomers (us) in the form of interstellar gas and auroras. No thanks needed for the remedial nuclear physics. note: no need to control nuclear reactions. If you want creation energy, forget about control rods and moderators and let er rip. Caveat : Do not try to create nuclear fusion at home. Your neighbors will notice the crater where your house used to be.
