I could imagine that some form of precursor event is required before another can be initiated. The concentration of electrons on the surface of the nano-material must reach a critical level before the reaction is productive. Rossi uses thermoelectric material to get this surface electron density up and DGT uses a spark discharge. Cheers: Axil On Fri, Feb 22, 2013 at 5:43 PM, David Roberson <dlrober...@aol.com> wrote:
