A recent news article on neutron emissions from lightning, and
deuterium in the atmosphere. Thought some here would be interested.

Michael,
Some time back our company worked up a series of schematics for a
presentation on proposed solar "hot plates" that could be used in
3rd world countries for a " combo" cooking and distilling water.
The idea is actually a takeoff of a " Mr. Coffee" type electric
perculator. The setup included a solar collector, a ceramic
hotplate fixed in a salt eutectic bed ,a steam still , a non
potable water tank and a potable water tank. The whole unit
portable that unfolds from a suitcase type container. Some 3rd
world countries have depleted thier source of firewood and/ or lack
potable water supplies. We were working with a world missions
program group that forecast a demand in the millions of units
provided the cost could be below $ 50.00 US.
The whole project got sidelined while trying to locate a source of
inexpensive fresnel lense materials.
"Bingo" !! up step Michael.
I have a full time research project going at present but if you are
interested I can fax you the schematics and put you in touch with
the interested parties, They operates similar to the Livingwaters
charitable waterwell drilling people in Africa and remote areas
on earth.
