For forty years physicists have been trying to get controlled nuclear fusion.
|
||
They've been taking poor little nuclei of heavy hydrogen-- we call 'em
|
||
"deuterons"-- and crashing them together with brute force. Just a little while
|
||
ago the news came out of Utah that you could do fusion in a pickle jar, without
|
||
a lot of expensive equipment. If this turns out to be true, it could be as
|
||
important to energy production as good old Enrico Fermi's first reactor in the
|
||
University of Chicago squash courts, way back when.

I was working in the Fusion Lab late one night
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
But I couldn't get my magnetic bottle to light
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
Yeah, it was late at night
|
||
Yeah, it wouldn't light
|
||
Yeah, she was a Fusion Girl
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
|
||
Then I met a chemist who was kinda pretty
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
She told me that she came from Salt Lake City
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
Yeah, she was kinda pretty
|
||
Yeah, she came from Salt Lake City
|
||
Yeah, she was a Fusion Girl
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
|
||
She said, "You're wasting your time, and you're bound to lose"
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
"Let me introduce you to a new way to fuse"
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
Yeah, you're bound to lose
|
||
Yeah, a new way to fuse
|
||
Yeah, she was a Fusion Girl
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
|
||
What Fermi did under a stadium
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
She did with heavy water and palladium
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
Yeah, he had a stadium
|
||
Yeah, she had palladium
|
||
Yeah, she was a Fusion Girl
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
|
||
We made it together and it was so sweet
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
Just a few neutrons and a whole lotta heat
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
|
||
Yeah, it was so sweet
|
||
Yeah, a lotta heat
|
||
Yeah, she was a Fusion Girl
|
||
Da deuteron, ron, ron, da deuteron ron
