Have they thought of  1) CAT/MRI/PET scans, 2) X-ray or 3) ultrasound scans? Do what they do with ancient artifacts (like Egyptian mummies for example) on this battery?? I mean try to non-invasibly 'scan' this  battery? I would think if there's some way to non-destructively scan this battery, it might mean new super long-lasting ways to make ANY battery...? Also I have always wondered if enclosing any battery in an inert atmosphere of argon or any other totally inert gas inside a second package might help keep any degradation of the battery intact might work as well...?? You never know...me being legally drunk right now might just help the whole world for a change hahaha,(reply>), MRI's out of the question because of the magnetic problems.
