That we are all made of energy, is nothing new since E=mc^2...then the possible uses of this energy may be very many, but we have to figure them first ;-)
Dare I say sanctus that it is also possibly incorrect to refer to gravity as a force in the sense of a conventional force. Since we know that a force is derived of 2 things, Mass and Velocity. Therefore since velocity is itself a form of kinetic energy is it not possible to say that gracity is oth a force and a source of energy at the same time?
