It's not dark matter. It can absorb photons of sufficient energy and return to normal operation. It should eventually become normal hydrogen again if exposed to high UV radiation.
Single-H, though... it should a GREAT rocket reaction mass.

Honestly GT, you seem like a decent guy but I'm surprised you so easily buy a claim worth trillions but only replicated by one lab.
Polywell?

Well - there is the hobbyist who actually got fusion from a polywell he built himself.
And other labs have verified the central well formation.

Eh?! [He wakes up in a stumbling yawn, as if the alarm he has been waiting for has shocked him from his slumber..] Stop the press... what?!?!

"An intellectually crazy bunching of experiments. It's a bit like saying you are interesting in flying so you're keeping an eye out for news on jet airliners, personal jet backpacks, intergalactic cruisers and dragons."

I'm also curious about many other things, theories, and hypothesis. Many of them unproven, correlative, or speculative. Further examples
1) Pancreas regeneration in mice following clipping of a nearby nerve curing type 1 diabetes in mice
2) Removal of the duodenum curing type 2 diabetes in people (occurs >90 of the time suggests targets in duodenum for cure of type 2 diabetes
3)Viral causes of cancer (one study found a particular virus in 24 out 26 cases of nonfamilial breast cancer biopsies suggestive but proves nothing)
4) Antiangiogenesis
5) Mammilian regeneration (MRL mouse)
6) Vitamin D reducing cancer and heart disease by ~50-80%, people grow up in Florida run 1/1000 the rate of MS and move to Canada their rates don't change but Canadians who move to Florida later in life still run 1000x the MS rate of people who grew up in Florida. This potentially implicating Vitamin D from sun exposure during adolescence but proves nothing.
7) A long term once a decade/2 decade advanced Flu Shot
8 ) Electromagetic Armor Plate
9) Coil Guns and RailGuns
10) Ultracapacitors
11) Synthetic conversion of coal to diesel/jet fuel
12) Fusion in many forms.
13) The effects of Sunspots on weather
14) Free electron Lasers
15) Various advanced/speculative types of space propulsion.
16) Supercavitating weapons.
17) Quantum Computing
18 ) etc
I could easily list a hundred more items that occasionally attracts my attention and that I follow up on every once in a while. A little curiosity can keep things interesting. My interests are just that mine and they vary from very speculative(Heim) to only an engineering problem (electromagnetic armor plate/ Magnetic Heat Shielding).

Concerning #3, the idea that viruses cause at least some types of cancer (or at least contributes to them in a significant manner- multi insult theory) is well accepted now. The prime example would be cervical cancer. that is caused by the virus that causes genital warts. There has been suspicion that this may be the case for decades after it was found that women (Nuns) with presumably no or minimal sex partners had very low cervical cancer rates. More recently further evidence was found, and now a vaccine against the Human Papilloma Virus is very good at preventing cervical cancer.

Polywell isn't worth anything as of yet, and maybe never will be; it's still in development. BLP's technology is mature (if you believe them) -- the existing tech should have a ten trillion dollar market.
n*kBolt*Te = B**2/(2*mu0) and B^.25 loss scaling? Or not so much? Hopefully we'll know soon...

Provided it exists.
I have not seen any proof for that.

Ok, this must be news.

Which intrepid chappie are you referring to here Wiz? (Yourself?)

You would not believe how controversial viral induced cancer was and is. It is now accepted for some very few cancers. But I remember taking an Advanced Molecular Genetics class ~1993-1994 the Professors stated Emphatically that viruses may cause cancer in animals (eg Feline Leukemic Virus) it is Never, Ever, happens in humans. The breast cancer by viral induction is currently being fought hard against by legacy researchers (every dollar that goes to viral is one less for them) and it all honesty maybe it isn't as correlation is not proof. But almost certainly other cancers may be caused by viral infections.
Most cancer clusters are well explained by a viral infection running through an area 99.99% of the people get the sniffles or some relatively innocuous symptoms and gets totally over it. The unluck 0.01% gets a cancer some time in the future after the virus inserts into the wrong portion of their genome. Not one of the occasional cancer clusters that makes the news in the US has been proven to be caused by environmental toxins and the epidemiology of a toxin induced cluster is not a good fit. But a virus running through an area with 5-6 people coming down with a rare type of brain cancer in a short period of time. Then no more cancer cases fits a population exposed to a virus with the lucky majority now immune to the cancer causing virus. Again correlation is not Proof but it can be suggestive.

Food for thought even some familial cancers could be viral with the virus being transmitted from mother to daughter it would look remarkably like inheritance.

I said according to Mills. He claims dark matter, or at least part of it, can be explained by hydrinos.

No. It does much more. You obviously have not read the report from Rowan.

Dave, you seem like a decent guy too! I'm not easily buying a claim based upon just the verification of one lab. I'm responding to the data from over a full decade, while understanding how science works.

BLP has produced a fantastic amount of data that almost no one has been willing to check. This is easy to understand given the way the human mind, and the scientific process works.

What is not easy to understand is why people who know next to nothing, take such a severe stand against a carefully proposed alternative to status quo science. I have no sympathy with this. People who don't avail themselves to real understanding ought to shut their mouths and let others ferret this all out. Instead, we have all manner of pretenders, acting as if they have understanding when they can't bother to look at the docs, or even focus to understand the issues.

What I see with regards BLP is a debacle every bit as bad as the Spanish Inquisition.

shame, Shame, SHAME! on the pretenders involved.

Yes of course it is everyone else's fault that mills has not provided the silver bullet. And it is all a conspiracy to suppress his research and the mounds of circumstantial and varied types of evidence he has provided. It all comes down to: where are the hydrinos? If he really wanted to be taken seriously then he'd ship a bottle of hydrinos to labs all over the country. Supposedly he is making them with abundance. What is holding him up? Either he doesn't have them or he doesn't care if anyone believes him. Either way it is on HIM!

from Blacklight's ppt::
Rowan reproduced BLP tests that identify a novel form of hydrogen as the likely explanation of the excess heat. { 6.5x sum of indentifiable inputs}.
- In a related experiment, Rowan was also able to synthesize in its own labs hydrogen atoms existing in lower energy states. Rowan University is headquartered in Glasboro, NJ and has over 10,000 students and a highly regarded chemical engineering department.
- Validation work at Rowan was performed by Dr Jansson (Ph.D. from University of Cambridge {doesnt say whether US or UK}, Dr Mugweru (Ph.D. from University of Connecticut) and Dr. Ramanujchary (Ph.D. from the Indian Institute of Technology).

I'm sure we read that claim some time ago. i would be particularly interested in their 'related' experiments.

Mills seems to be trying to take the 'phenomenon' to commercialisation, before the science is commonly understood and accepted. that would be a risk, were it possible, which i beleieve it is not. suffice it to say, BLP certainly seem to have all their sales material lined up. so now where's the goods?

to get nearer any truth, i suspect we must approach Rowan directly and ask to see their data (reviewed, and published form if possible).

anyone feel up to the challenge? or has it been tried already, remind me? you'd have thought other labs would be queiing up to be part of it, if Rowan felt it worthwhile show-casing that particular work. does anyone have a link to the Rowan report (again)?

(ps. ps. perhaps the significant 'awards' from Blacklight to Rowan's cash sheet have a little to do with affairs? (eg: http://www.rowan.edu/open/provost/grant ... er2009.pdf, et al.))
