See above.  It's just what a young, wide-eyed, idealistic physicist in-training should be fascinated by.  (and no, it doesn't 'defy the laws of physics'.)

 I understand inertial propulsion, i'm slightly insulted that you assumed I had never previously learned of it.  It's not all that fascinating to me either, but that's just because i'm more interested in the universe than physics itself. 
also, i do still believe that every action has a reaction and every cause has an effect - so i'd be more than happy to debate that last bit with you.
