Which contains one of the most amazing understatements that you are likely to ever see in any new energy technology (at least it will be "most amazing" to the mainstream of nuclear physics). That statement is found on page 8, where NOT just traces of transmutation products were found, but instead, well... in the authors own words: "Fig. 6. Analysis of the boulder-like segment showed the presence of a single element, Al, [!!!!!]... Imagine that... in a Pd cathode one finds a micro-sized "boulder" but not a mix of elements - a boulder of a single transmutation product, aluminum... furthermore- "and that resembling a crater, the presence of two elements, namely Mg and Al. Without the aid of a Maxwell demon, it would be difficult to argue that such directed motion of impurities can take place. The only sensible answer is that they were produced in the course of electrolysis of D2O in a cell placed in an external electric field by nuclear events." Why would aluminum be favored? And how could the nuclear events leading up to this substantial amount of aluminum happen and at the same time have been close to "energy neutral". IOW the formative events must have been "energy neutral" or else one would have a deep cavity there rather than a mound... Maxwell's demon goes mainstream ? Jones
