* I dunno, why would alt.energy/FE people be so interested in Andrea Rossi's E-Cat if it is so radioactive? Please define “so radioactive” … It is all “a matter of degree.” Bananas are radioactive, as are nuts and other common foods, yet we tolerate low levels of radioactivity quite well. If there is slight radioactivity in the E-Cat, then it is not a problem. Compare it with natural gas, for instance. My GM monitor detects when the furnace starts because natural gas from many areas contains tiny amounts of radon and tritium “naturally.” When burned, this toxicity is spread in the worst possibly way – directly into the air we must breathe. At least the E-Cat (if it is real) would keep it confined where it cannot get into the lungs. I will take that option every time ! All of Europe is breathing Russian-derived radioactivity from the natural gas they buy by the trillions of cubic feet - and yet you seldom hear protests over that. The Germans want to protest the reactors, absurd! Since they get 99% of their radioactivity from burning their toxic coal and Russian natural gas. Go figure. Jones
