He never said. I've passed all the advice along to him, as well as a link to this forum, though. He's been following fusion developments for a bit, himself. Maybe he'll come by and answer some of your questions.. He's mentionned a couple of very indirect clues as to his design, but he's so secretive...

Some guy on the net, who took part in a discussion forum unrelated to energy, mentioned woes of getting his energy production scheme developed for lack of honest investors.

Hmm.. I've downloaded a lot of those pdfs and never gotten a warning from NOD32, up to date and with all modules enabled except email surveillance. It would be surprising for Google to be wrong on this.

Do we at EMC2 believe this is reliable? No... Am I concerned about this? No. You'll just have to stay tuned. If there is no beef, kill yourself a cow!
