You carry a strong streak of pragmatism in you, Jed. If I had anything to say about what our DoE ought to fund, I'd do my best to hedge my bets by diversifying as much as possible. That means I would make sure LENR research got a fair share of the nation's portfolio as well. Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
