Jones, I appreciate the recap. But while I appreciate that there may be breakthroughs and perhaps this one goes above the level my post considered...
I was talking about conventional nuclear weapons that are declassified. Not black projects, not experimental research. Now you do make a good point, but I'm not sure we really know what Holmlid is doing currently, especially me since this is outside my area of active interest really. I am not sure if can be considered settled sciences well known to create a suitcase H-bomb with conventional nuclear yield. Are you sure it can be? If so that is scary!
