The content-free nature of this article reminds me why I never visit CNN's web site. It's amazing to think that I trusted them and watched their "news" when I was a kid.

Is it not possible for a site to go downhill over a period of time? Ie: it is possible that the network was good when you were younger but no longer.

Oh, "springs"! Silly me for thinking magnets were structures with aligned polarized molecules.

Amusing--I don't think the TSA has thought to put neodymium magnets on the banned-in-flight list.
(One of the characters in the article gets literally stuck in an airport.)

At least they weren't looking for "zero point" energy or perpetual motion. I have to agree though that this article isn't worth your time.
