Using these ideas, here is a basement physics experiment,
I've tried
(It's only sugjested as possible way to see cold fusion if B2H-- is
doing as I described. I'm not responsible you die of radiation
poisoning, or anykind of other laboratory mishaps :-)
  
This very simple experiment which generates a fair amount of heat. 
I
leave the neutron, and gamma tests to the experts, or a good chemist to
explain where the heat comes from.  Electrolyze a nickle (Ni) anode
(+) and a Copper (Cu) cathode (-) in a bath of H2O and Borax.
(2Na4B7O*10H2O) at 10V @ 0.150amp. Replace with D2O at your own risk.

First, I appoligize for the crude-ness of my last posting.  Lets just say
that I had trouble with an editor (vi to be exact).  
...
Electodes of the nickel-copper, copper-nickel combinations were
tried.
 The Cu cathode/Ni anode produced heat on the Ni anode side. 
>From 20C
TO 60C in about 1hr. The heat appears when the black salt form.  It
took about 3hr to evaporate 15ml of H2O.  

The A/C experiments are interesting. The Ni-Ni, Ni-Cu, Cu-Ni
combinations all generate heat, however, in the Ni-Cu, Cu-Ni
combinations, it was the copper that generates heat, not Nickel! 
The
heat seems a little higher too.  20C to about 80C in 3hrs. no salts
appear to form, and very, very little gasses evolve. However, the
nickel shows some discolorization at the tips of the C-shaped
electrodes. Because the Cu electrodes seem to be the source of heat, it
throughs a strange twist into the idea of a chemical evolution of
heat.

But since Ni-Ni also generates heat, and Cu-Cu does not, it sugjests
that a Ni-B compound is a component of the source of heat.  A
control
run of all experiments A/C & D/C with pure H2O showed no heat from
any
combination of electrodes.
