You said: According to

That sounds about right - but this is very low - and if memory

About a month ago I wrote to Dr. Grimes suggesting
that he check to see if there was a temperature rise
when his titania tube material (22 nm tubes; see

This is most interesting - and even more so since

Would you consider using a few millimoles ofthe strong Positron Emitter Na-22
(~ 2.5 year half-life) in electrolysis cells with Titanium, Nickel, or Palladium

How many millicuries would you be handling, if they let you buy it?

That was supposed to say gasoline has 42 MJ/kg and 132 MJ/gallon.
Gasoline is lighter than water, so 1 gallon weighs 3.1 kg. One U.S.
gallon of water weighs 3.8 kg (same as liters - duh).
