If results came out negative, would that be easier to report to the public than positive news, which must be verified out the wazoo?

Does anyone have time to calculate how much energy you can harvest from sunlight from 10,000 square miles, given the few-percent efficiency of photosynthesis? Keeping in mind sunlight is available about half the day at most.

Excellent work, ladajo!

In the excel file, next to Energy Matter Conversion Corp it says "China Lake" in the column for "Projected Work Location."

Whoops, I see this has already been kicked around.

Not if the polywell wrecks their economy. On the + side, they might get cheap water desalination out of the deal, and some darn fine vegetable gardens.

first... its a perpetual motion machine. BLP and Eestor are not perpetual motion... just extremely efficient. Errr..... not at all... BLP is a perpetual motion machine because it generates energy from nothing and outputs 'waste' hydrino hydrogen. What I got from the PDF was that the process takes i...

These last 2 years they're accelerating their sales. Umm... not sales of working hardware, they're sales of licenses to a bogus process. One thing that bothers me about the BLP thing is it hinges on believing a single person--Mills. Things in nature are usually discovered by several people simultan...

The most amazing thing about BLP is their staying power. Mill's theories were examined and debunked years ago. His book about quantum this or that contains numerous errors and passages lifted wholesale from textbooks. "Extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence." Mills is loaded with hot air...

But didn't EMC2 move to China Lake or someplace?

Anyone who knows squat isn't talking. But 'Korg' seems to have gotten the publicly-known details right.

Sounds like a great way to quantum-tunnel dollars from a gullible investor's pocket into theirs.

I remember a company claiming some years back that they had a lossless compression technique that made the file smaller and smaller with every additional pass. Unsurprisingly, turned out to be BS.

What we need is a mainstream media direct pickup of Polywell, to include an attempt to delve into the work at Santa Fe. Then you might see the Distinguished Gentlepersons from New Mexico lobbying for money in federal bills. Till EMC's had time to bang on WB8 a while, and reported positive results, ...

My understanding of ITER: not only will the construction of a powerplant be high compared to nuclear/coal, but neutron degradation of the reactor means you have to replace it every several months. This is the D-T reaction which produces lots of energetic neutrons. An ITER-style reactor will produce ...

Pouring money into a Hole? The jokes write themselves.

Hmm. A quick look here http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2000/AnnaWoo.shtml says the record is 850T for a destructively pulsed magnet. With the kind of forces you're putting on the metal, what's the strongest continuous practical field you can manage? More like 50T?
