Hi Horace,
Thanks for remembering this heroic effort to make tritium using the F-P
method. The intention was to create a NAE on the surface, not to improve
loading, which this treatment did not do. We tried a lot of stupid ideas
at a time when we didn't know what might work. A few did work, but not
often and for no apparent reason.

Hi Ed,
That's a tough one, I tried to duplicate their results just after they
announced them, and read all I could find about their experiments. It
probably came from usenet newsgroup sci.physics.fusion. If I
remember the

Any chance you are thinking of pretreating the palladium with paraffin
and hydrogen sulfide. This is a process Ed Storms himself seems to
have used. See:
