Jones, tritium is only produced when H is used, as Mills is doing. Use
of pure deuterium does not produce tritium while producing much more
energy. Mills needs to switch to deuterium, but if he did he would
have to admit he was causing a nuclear reaction. He has created a no
win situation.
Tritium is not a serious heath hazard. It is presently used in
emergency signs in many buildings.

Mills focuses only on creation of the state, not its role in
LENR... He took this stand early even though he saw and reported
tritium
production because he did not want to get sucked in the rejection
hole into
which LENR had fallen.
Excellent point, Ed
This may come as a bombshell to a few vorticians ... tritium ... from
Randell Mills ... wow, and no doubt Mills would like to take that
particular
report back. Never mind that it goes back over 20 years.
Lucky for him that Fusion Technology is so stingy with their online
access.
But a slight amount of tritium is probably unavoidable in any
reaction of
hydrogen in a transition metal - a least one that runs for longer
than a day
or two.
OTOH, the presence of tritium even in tiny amounts is UNEQUIVOCAL
proof of
LENR. So that's a pretty good thing (for everyone but BLP). The
downside is
that this could keep LENR out of the US house, or US automobile,
until such
a time that it can be dealt with by the bureaucracy.
No problem for China. Breathing a bit of tritium could be an
improvement
over the normal air quality there :-)
