Unfortunately, my MovableType installation did not correctly publish this article on Monday morning, as it usually does. Anyway, the word is chimera.

A thing that is hoped or wished for, but in fact is impossible to achieve
"Ned's resolution to end world hunger with his Visa card proved to be a chimera."
