I must ask a question that exposes my ignorance: I suspect many who aren't technically gifted are not going to perceive Arata's 1 C temperature increase, where deuterons were used instead of hydrogen, as all that impressive. So what if the 1 degree temperature increase above ambient temperature persisted for at least 6000 hours. I realize other CF researchers are likely to consider the 1 C temp increase to be a resounding breakthrough, particularly if it can be independently replicated. Nevertheless, I suspect it's difficult for the uneducated lay person to see what the fuss over a 1 degree increase is all about. Granted, I fully realize the fact that we are dealing with what I presume is a tiny experimental setup, where the reaction chamber is small to begin with. Can CF researchers perceive a way to scale up Arata's process in a practical way to eventually produce the amount of excess heat necessary for household and industrial applications?
