I have here a container containing a quantity of potential energy. It 
might be a lake behind a dam. It might be a fusion bomb, it might be a 
battery...It might be an elephant at 50,000 feet.

I want to rapidly and safely return it to a state where it has no energy.

Unfortunately someone told me energy is always conserved, usually into a 
fucking big bang.

All questions are simpler when viewed from the correct perspective.
