I was thinking more along the lines of a particular isolate mycelium having
that trait.  The science of mycology is a nascent study that has only begun
to be revealed through research.  We are just beginning to discover the
reasons certain mushrooms were prized by Chinese healers.

I mentioned Paul Stamets.  Here is an interesting 17 minute TED talk he did
years ago
https://www.ted.com/talks/paul_stamets_6_ways_mushrooms_can_save_the_world?language=en

If we have a yeast that can separate HDO from seawater, Stamets can add
number 7 to his list.

BTW, "Star Trek: Discovery" has honored the name of Paul Stamets in a
character who essentially founded Astromycology.

Well if there is a survival advantage to concentrating deuterium,  for single 
cell or complex organisms then by using well known techniques of selection and 
gene modification, one would suspect that  the efficiency could increase 
exponentially over time. One  could cover vast quantities of ocean with a 
blanket of cellular life which could concentrate Deuterium oxide for very low 
cost. It could possibly be concentrated as a lipid and used to replace gasoline,

 In such a  situation we would need to re-evaluate technologies which have been 
written off before as impractical due to cost. For instance deuterated fuels in 
an automobile engine with the proper catalyst on the piston crown could 
possibly create LENR reactions in the flame.

No one has tried it because no one thought deuterated fuel could be produced in 
a renewable low cost way.

Hi,

That's how the weather works. We already harness the "cold of outer space" when 
we harness wind power.

Hello Vortex-L,

   Has anyone heard of people using a fungus to produce heavy water from
sea water?  Someone was telling me about "scientists in China or Japan"
who are working on "fusion using a liquid that looks like water, but is not
water."  I assumed he was talking about Heavy Water.  He said they are
using a fungus to produce the liquid.

   Does anyone know what he could be talking about?

[Vo]:Black nothingness?

2020-10-27 Thread Don86326

*Technical environment of the phenomena:  High-energy fields*


This is a community question of memory-tags anyone has that may 
contribute about "semi-intelligent flat black stuff", or "2D voids", or 
maybe even the atypical "shadow people" or other something similar.


Is that topic safe or prudent to discuss here to compare notes for a 
better perspective?


I would love to learn more.


-don

p.s. Because if appropriate, I would like to contribute a 1st person and 
a 2nd person anecdotal account.  I'm the 2nd and 3rd person in each the 
stories.  A pattern seems to be surfacing.
