What is very interesting about both the article you referenced, java, and what I cited, is that both may have potential for altering the mass of an object, thus opening the door to faster than light travel. Very interesting indeed.

I see the biggest potential for this technology in the diet industry. Look how much money is spent on weight loss. Perhaps an application where your mass is reduced via a pocket sized device. The sales of that alone could probably fund a large scale space exploration program TB

CNN just ran a story on the anti-gravity issue, and confirmed that Boeing is interested in the Russian scientist. If anti-gravity pans out, altering the mass of an object can't be far behind, which means that faster than light speed travel is just around the corner. The implications are staggering.
