As I recall, the material referred to was developed at Wright Patterson Air Force Base (either at the base or privately by an employee). It is a special crystalline form of titanium borite the superconducts along one axis at room temperature. Research is going on now to investigate its suitability for use in ICs (!) and an attempt to make a flexible form for use as power cable. Clayton Elwell ...{usenet}!decvax!cwruecmp!elwell
