Ask Mark's pdfs of Dr. Bussard's papers:

Especially this one which reports on Dr. Bussard's last experiment:

And lastly the sidebar and other material at:

Finally - criticism is gratefully accepted. Even better is - if you see a problem offer a solution. If Polywell can work (this is not certain) we want to shorten the road.
