Energy is only released when hydrinos are formed, not when > accumulated hydrinos are returned to "normal". That, of course, is part of Mills' explanation. But we should keep in mind two things: 1) that he could very easily have discovered the process; but yet he still got many of the details in his theory wrong, or half-right. 2) there could be an autocatalytic stage, following build-up of hydrinos over time. Some of us have been saying for some time that it appears from analyzing many of the past results, that the first few redundant ground states of hydrino formation (at least the first) could be endothermic, not exothermic. Moreover, If at a certain stage in the ongoing process, the shrinkage below ground state does continue and becomes atuocatalytic - all the way down to n = 1/137 then of course those last 100+ steps would shed tremendous energy very rapidly. Had Mizuno been using a G-M monitor at the time, there would have been a big spike at the time of the explosion, as the lower stages are all soft x-rays, in theory. Jones
