Re: Scepticism and arguments
I therefore believe that the topic of answering sceptical inquires and questions should be discussed. I agree. - Make a section where we upload and allow free access to all papers and similar documents regarding Polywell, along with anything that is relevant to the topic, within the limits of copyr...

Solo's schooling
I'm a freshman college student, math/physics double major (with a healthy interest in chemistry and engineering too)... Anyway, this is making me impatient with my schooling: I want to hurry up and learn some plasma physics! Where are you going to school? Do they have a decent plasma physics lab th...

Re: press release as introductory paper
Hmm, I think it would help if the document were released as some kind of press release from an organization. Is there an organization associated with Dr. Bussard's work that might publish such a paper? There is an organization ( EMC2 FDC ), but I'd guess that Dr. Bussard would say that the Valencia...

Donations to EMC2
Newcomers should look at all the Polywell-related links (for example as listed here ), so we don't have to duplicate them here. So, let's turn this thread into brainstorming about how we can encourage lots of regular people to contribute to EMC2. For example, a progress thermometer might be very hel...

Re: Spreading the news about Polywell fusion
I think the best way everyone of us can help in this enterprise is by spreading the news of the discovery. Right now most of the people is not aware of the results of WB6. The best way is by doing some marketing in the media ( magazine, newspapers,...) outside internet. I tend to agree. I wrote (by...

Posting images
You may a very good point there. I still think that most people who will be designing any graphics probably already have a site where they can host them. But if you don't, then until we can add that capability to this forum, here's what I recommend: Upload your graphics to your favorite photo-sharin...

I would like to encourage the creation of guidelines that avoid highly controversial (abortion, Bush, immigration, gay marriage, Bush etc.). They are non-topical to fusion, and will quickly drop to a flame war. There are appropriate forums for those. You have a good point here. I'm a little wary of...

Hi!
Thanks for joining the discussion! I too have learned more physics in the last six months than in the previous six years. :) In my case at least, this was because I was initially skeptical about Dr. Bussard's results, and so I dug up all the published papers I could find and studied them. The result...

Focus Fusion <> Monkhurst-Rotorker FRC
I don't think Monkhurst-Rotorker FRC is the same thing as Focus Fusion. I agree, Focus Fusion seems to have more hype than substance (in my humble opinion, and with the caveat that I haven't looked into it very deeply). But this may be how many people perceive Polywell fusion, too. We should conside...

Can we tie environmental concerns to polywell funding?
A recent global opinion poll shows that, world-wide, pollution and other environmental problems are seen as the leading threat the world faces. This suggests (and I'm sure others can confirm) that there should be a fair amount of funding available to tackle these issues. And it seems pretty clear th...

Yeah, but I can't upload my own images unless I have a link to another website where they are already displayed. There is another thread on this forum asking for people to submit an image to replace the phpbb banner logo at the top. How can I do that if I can't upload images? Please send it to me (...

Re: Fractal Logo
They are indeed beautiful, but are somewhat lacking in relevance in this case. I was hoping for something suggestive of a Polywell reactor. Maybe a stylized six-ring reactor with a starbust in the middle, representing the fusion reaction. And then of course the words "Talk-Polywell" next to it, maki...

Including images in your post
Sorry man, but discussion can be done anywhere: Sciforums, Habitablezone, Nasa Spaceflight forum. The latter even allows images to be displayed as part of the post, and no one cares if someone posts just a link. Feedback noted, with thanks. For what it's worth, you can include images as part of the...

This is the place for any "off topic" posts — discussion you want to have with fellow Talk-Polywell members, but which does not relate directly to polywell fusion.
