[Vo]:DeepWater Horizon ideas..

I came across some info that said there is no way to fix it and that there is so much oil it will go on to the point of extreme disaster and beyond. And that only a nuke which might make it dramatically worse has any chance of fixing it. So I had a thought, what if you turned the ocean water into

[Vo]:Equivalence breaks down.

http://www.technologyreview.com/blog/arxiv/25331/ The equivalence principle is one of the more fascinating ideas in modern science. It asserts that gravitational mass and inertial mass are identical. Einstein put it like this: the gravitational force we experience on Earth is identical to the force

[Vo]:saturation lockstep as the hammer?

I am wondering if the lockstep motion of d1 shown in the Superwave animation (when saturation>85%) could be exploited by deuterons being sling shot into the interior wall of Casimir cavity when the catalytic action disassociates the d2 into d1? I am thinking a d1 that gets shot into an empty cel

While on the subject of beta decay in nickel - especially in 64Ni -- the possibility can be mentioned (even if it now seems remote) that "if and when" helium ash is proved as evidence of excess heat in reactions involving nickel and deuterium - and in particular when the amount of helium correspond

RE: [Vo]:Rossi

Hi Robin, There are certainly several ways to suggest that radiation "could have" and should have been measured if it was there and that assumes that the authors wanted to measure it, but the point is that the Rossi paper is severely deficient in many ways, if not intentionally misleading. It is
