Regarding this and the emails that follow -- very interesting.  It seems
that there's a whole slew of possible neutron stripping reactions
available, with different characteristics.  With the right combinations,
you can keep the energy levels pretty manageable (or do the opposite, if
you like).

On a slight tangent, I'm reminded of the Pap engine.  Can you think of any
neutron stripping reactions involving noble gasses? (One I can already
anticipate: deuterium + a noble gas.)
