It hadn't occurred to anyone to do it. The problem is that there are hundreds of potential variations, and you never know which is promising. Srinivasan did what seemed most likely to work. He did what Mills and others claimed was working. It never did. SRI worked closely with Arata on nanoparticle Pd, and replicated him. **** > > ** ** > > Again – that was NOT back in the day when glowing success from a > well-respected lab would have made a huge difference in perceptions. > What day was that? They did the experiment as soon as they could get cooperation from Arata. It was a glowing success. SRI is a well-respected lab. It isn't their fault that the mass media ignored them. They also replicated Case's gas loaded experiment. Again, they did that soon after Case emerged. They wasted no time. - Jed
