[baudrunner]

I think that when anti-matter's place in the cosmic scheme of things is fully understood then we'll probably just leave it alone. I wouldn't waste my money on it. According to baudrunner's theory of anti-matter's place in the cosmic scheme of things there is a creation front that moves in one direction, outwards, and this results in a predominance of spin properties of strings, ergo sub-particle constituents, ergo sub-atomic particles, ergo matter not anti-matter. That's why there is a predominance of matter over anti-matter.

The only motivation that could lead to the notion of collecting vast amounts of artificially manufactured anti-matter is an anti-social one.

But what about research? Well, okay. And off we go.
