It's well-understood, and not magical at all. Your argument is that resonance has some amazing macroscopic effects, and so WL is absolutely possible.

A resonant transformer is well understood. Producing a million volts in a macroscopic device is pretty easy. But even those fields are 10,000 smaller than WL need localized to produce electron capture. And how does a resonant transformer relate to concentrating thermal energy into an electric field fluctuation at a single atomic site. I'm not saying it's impossible. I'm saying your arguments and Zawodny's (or WL) jargon don't make it any more plausible. And it still leaves the question of why WL is any more plausible than ordinary fusion. The latter should be a 10 times easier resonant phenomenon, so why does anyone (NASA) pay attention to WL? I can read minds using resonance. Don't believe me? Look up Tesla coils and the Tacoma bridge.
