That's not to say that it isn't worth pursuing - it's absolutely necessary that we do so.

What you heard in the 70's was the fruit of the 70's oil price boom.
Then oil price went down and all was silent for a while...
Now... well.... history repeats itself, but fusion science and technology has advanced something in the meantime... so it's closer...
