Here is another potential paper: what will come first, quantum 
computing, or nuclear fusion as source of electricity? Compare 
investments over time between quantum computing and nuclear fusion. 
Track parallel advances, such as "the tokamak could contain plasma for 5 
milli seconds" vs. "we factored number 15". Track the definition of next 
10 years over time.
