I agree with Ed about this, but it should be noted that other people such

Of course the project name is not innocent, 10^100 is also known as 1
googol, whose misspelling as "google" is claimed to be the origin of
the name of the company :)

Well, that means it is not practical breakthrough but it still might

No, that's precisely the difference. CF as it stands rarely yields
an excess of
more than a few percent (and when it does, no one understands why).
That's incorrect on two counts:

I've seen a repeated posting with fantastical ideas about aether and
parallel universes. Now really, come on!
Whether it is private or public money you need to have projects with clear
objectives backed up with some testable theory or suppositions.
The way they work these things is bit by bit the
