OK, so that leaves just about nothing to extract. It would certainly not be adequate to explain LENR levels of energy we are expecting. So, why do we hear members of the vortex speaking of variation in the mass of the proton as being important?
I have to ask about the measurement technique and how it is possible to determine the mass to that level of precision. I have never witnessed the determination of proton mass and plead ignorance to the processes that are used. Can anyone actually make a physical measurement that is to the accuracy suggested? Anyone can calculate the number to as many decimal figures as they desire by using a computer model but the results might not reflect the real world values. Does anyone have first hand experience in making this determination and what is the real standard deviation of the energy content of a lone proton? If the numbers are as precise as you are suggesting then why not put to rest the thought of being able to somehow extract this source of energy? Jones, I think you might have some input that would be helpful.
