39Ar -- 40K (which is mildly radioactive)
There is no 39Ar. Only the stable isotopes exist, i.e. 36, 38, and 40, with the
overwhelming majority being 40Ar.

Robin,
Thanks. Right you are, wrt 39Ar Goes to show ya' that one should never
try to compose such messages from memory, without going back to notes.
However, the main point that I was shooting at in that posting, should have
been obvious and is unchanged: there is a much greater probability

Anyway - This potential problem in LENR, which will certainly get the NRC
involved eventually - is due to three separate factors.
1) neutrons - if SPAWAR and others are correct.
Even a few neutrons are problematic

Garwin's statement was mind boggling. As Ed says, 60 Minutes did us a
favor by airing his comment.
McKubre's response was good. I would have exploded! Perhaps, if I had
been the interviewer, I might have had the presence of mind to ask
Garwin: If this is an error measuring input, how do you
Something else that piqued my interest:
McKubre's highly optimist prediction of being able to manufacture CF
power cells possibly within 20 years seemed carefully worded. What I
mean by that is that if these power cells can indeed be economically
manufactured, particularly for the excessive power

You hit on the essential consequence of CF, Steven. This power source
could replace all other power sources everywhere and give the Third
world the same benefit the First World has, but at much less expense.
It would replace the grid and most of the pipelines that carry gas and
gasoline.
From Ed Storms:

All we need now is the knowledge to make it
work on a large scale. If you think the present
economic problems are bad, wait until people
realize that most of the major cooperations would
go bankrupt as their products become worthless.
Another example of being careful

Let me refine the previous posting with this reworded and conditional
paragraph, not that it will be any less provocative to either camp:
