>H-e-H --> D The problem with this one is that the energy is all taken by the neutrino http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton%E2%80%93proton_chain_reaction#The_pep_re action Robin, Yes. As far back as 1996 Mitchell Swartz concluded that this is possible, but essentially hopeless for substantial energy production in "Possible Deuterium Production from Light Water Excess Enthalpy Experiments Using Nickel Cathodes", Journal New Energy volume 1, 3, 68-79 (1996). If the energy seen by Rossi were due to P-e-P, he could make a lot more money selling the deuterium than providing heat ;) ... hey ... come to think of it ... you don't think that the deuterium tank seen at one time in Rossi's setup was indicating that he could be harvesting the ash <g> ? nah... The excuse given at the time was to quench the reaction, but think about it, do you quench fire with gold? Check the relative price .... the new gold rush? Come to think of it, if the casual observer was wondering why BLP has not countered Rossi with its own demo, yet seems to be flush with new money, then one need only imagine the price he can get from DoD/NASA for harvested Hy for use as either weapons or propellant.
