DON'T LOSE time and money around the fusion energy illusion and the lunar-helium-3 dream!!!

I think that fusion energy researches are a GIANT WASTE of TIME and
MONEY (several Billion$$$ so far) since the (cold/hot/semi-hot) fusion
is ONLY a scientific curiosity that NEVER will have any commercial
applications, NOT EVEN if a fusion machine will (finally!) reach a
stable, "self-sustained" reaction, because we DON'T NEED any fusion
reactor AT ALL as explained in this article:
http://www.ghostnasa.com/posts/003moonhelium.html
At the (enbarrassing) scenario of the (failed) fusion research, now,
somebody (scientists, newspapers, space forums, etc.) have added the
"Lunar Helium-3" factor/dream/illusion (something like the lunar
poles' water...) despite it's ONLY a THEORY so far, since there is NO
EVIDENCE that our moon hides a so giant He3 treasure!
There are only some scientits who "believe" that... 1. the He3 from
the Sun STILL is on the moon surface, after BILLIONS years... 2.
millions meteorites crashed on the moon have just "disseminated" the
He3 on the surface rather than (as appears more logical) SLINGED this
very light element in Space... 3. then, we can (really) find ONE
million tons of He3 on the moon!
Then, they "believe" that, mining tons of Lunar-He3 and bring them to
earth, will be "so easy and cheap" that He3-He3 energy could WIN on
prices against oil, methane, coal, nuclear, hydro, wind, solar,
biofuels and geothermal energy!!!
well, just to inform them... EACH moon mission will cost (at least) $9
billion (including the shared R&D and fixed costs) to bring back to
earth LESS THAN 100 kg. of moon rocks at a price of $90,000,000.oo per
kg.!!!
