   <*sigh*>  O.K., gamma-rays are about the most useless non-fictional,   
   _NON-HYPOTHETICAL_ source of energy conceivable, short of neutrinos!   
      
      
   (BTW, at least axions, =IF= they exist, _do_ couple weakly to the   
   electromagnetic force, and can be stimulated to decay into photons   
   when passing through a plasma or a strong electromagnetic field,   
   so there is a minuscule chance that, unlike neutrinos, one might be   
   able to do _something_ with them! :-T)
