One of the better things about Vortex is looking back through the archives.
Sometimes this can be embarrassing (i.e. consistent misspellings and other hasty-puddin' mistakes by moi) but at other times, one is struck by the clarity of old insight - most of which was never acted-upon (at least not to the degree which would happen "in a perfect world") Such is the posting of Horace Heffner- mentioned in the carbon-transmutation thread: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg01517.html and the entire thread beginning here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg01218.html I am still trying to sort out the variables involved in the several anomalies which have been mentioned, both chemical and (possibly) nuclear, but it goes without saying that "alternative-carbon" (to distinguish it from coal and/or petroleum carbon) with or without deuterium and LENR, may offer on of the most expedient solutions to solving at least a significant part of the energy crisis....
