Wouldn't it just be easier to pull it out of the seawater itself? Kinda sucks for a fresh water navy, but you should be able to find room on board a naval vessel to put a boron recovery plant and materials needed in the steps to refine it.

I was a student at Ohio U. and remember seeing it. They also have one of the largest Van De Graff accelerators in the world there.

Yeah, since the down turn the unobtanium suppliers have had a tough time! The 'something-from-nothing' machines that they used to share time on with the Financial Markets have all broken!!! Are you constitutionally unable to accept a communication without snide implication that Polywell is somehow ...

I tend to use a low powered bluetooth headset next to my head, and leave the cell on my belt holster. I'm wondering if that would make much of a difference.. I can't stand wired earpieces though, they get caught in things.

Please keep up the very good work you do! And yes, I'm one of the ones hoping your successes are recognised..

Unfortunately, this will kill non-military fission power, at least for the next fifty years.. We won't be able to educate the general public on safety of the reactor vessels and emergency cooling when Japan is evacuating the area around the plants for ten Km (or more by now). Even worse, it isn't on...

Much better them, than Bush, Cheney. and Rove.

The missing solar piece is this: you can run them in reverse. Electricity in + water gives off H2 (for storage) and O2 to vent to the atmosphere. He originally developed the tech at NASA to use on a Mars mission to generate O2. Since these things use common materials in manufacturing, (cheap beach s...

See Lee Corry's Manna for a glimpse.

The SF collection "High Justice" by jerry Pournelle explored this back in the 70s http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Justice
The Wikipedia article gives some more information on the concepts.

I have a concern with the possible turbulence in the coolant. How fast is the LHe supposed to be pumped through this? Lots of sharp edges to form vorticies with...

From what I was told, the particle pair that is spontaneously created, contains a "normal" particle, and a particle with negative mass. The negative mass particle is what falls into the BH. The normal one escapes and is seen as Hawking radiation, while the other causes the BH to shrink ever so sligh...

For some strange reason, the symmetry of having it done at the University of Chicago appeals to me. Too bad there are no more squash courts to take over...

Violent paranoia is, as a "rule", caused by other things mixed with the cannabis. For instance, PCP is a common thing to mix. *Shudder*
