Fatal flaw: Lock mirrors in the morning for maintenance or lose power to mirror motors but the sun keeps rising, thus the focal focal point of up to 300 MW's of thermal flux moves down the tower, torching it. Enough heat to collapse a tower under the right conditions.

Asymmetrical loading of deuterium into metals does indeed produce ‘cold fusion’ as evidenced by prodigious heat and commensurate 4He. It is most certainly NOT loading into cracks it is rather a super loading method for bulk material. Cracks do form but they are a defect not a desired condition.

I think sonofusion and cold fusion are the same. The bubble effect on H/D is essentially like cracks, like what Ed says. And even the same case bellow. (Cold fusion and even heat after death, for me, is caused after submitting H/D to pressures of 10^11Pa and submitted to thermal energy than

I'm probably misremembering all this. I didn't look back at my old email before mouthing off and it was a long time ago. The other thing I (think I) recall about the brouhaha is that disagreement over the Correas had a lot to do with it. Replication is all, and they didn't have it. Anyhow

Any process has waste. So, for example, if the input is 1W and the output is 0.9W it doesn't mean there wasn't CF. The yield could be like 1mW and the remaining 0.099 wasted in other means. 1mW is a big deal. For example, if it were hot fusion, it would give a lethal dose, being close to the
