Terry, This sounds pretty plausible. Probably correct. I am surprised, though, that the fireball did not destroy the wire it had already passed - looks like serious energy is dissipated. -- Lou Pagnucco Terry Blanton wrote: Reminds me of a Jacob's ladder. The initial ionization in this case

That was my first impression as well Terry. One thing missing was that the wires were not swinging wildly due to the large current that lead to the bright display. Now we need to determine whether or not the repulsive force generated by the changing magnetic field within the loop of wire

I'm guessing a horizontal Jacob's Ladder. I think there's a fairly strong wind right-to-left, which would blow the arc along the two horizontal wires. At one point the arc is clearly being blown to the left. In the version I saw, the videographer said it went by multiple times. -

I believe that molten fluoride salts can replace water in the LeClair reaction. During the development of the molten salt reactor, it was found that the erosion rate on the impellers of the molten salt pumps during cavitation were ten times the erosion rate using water. The temperature of the
