Steven-- Again I agree with you.
I was a nuclear engineer for over 25 years as a government employee with first the Navy and then the NRC—retired in 1988. Fred claims to have worked for the Navy it seems. It would surprise me, if Naval Reactors does not already have a working LENR prototype power source. Direct electrical energy production would be a natural source of power for a ship, particularly a sub. My thought about Fred’s ranting was that he must be a security boy trying to deflect attention from the LENR R&D to sustain its dark applications as dark. I have seen reports of over 5000 dark (secret) programs within the US Government. (The Union of Concerned Scientists—Secrecy Now-- was the source.) There must be many security types that try to discourage R&D in the dark areas. Think about the DOE on the heals of P&F’s work in 1989 an 1990. The good nuclear engineers will be a big help in LENR R&D given their skills in engineering physics, metallurgy, dynamics and control, heat transfer, thermal hydraulics, shielding design, etc,etc,etc. I think they will adapt readily, paying no attention to the likes of Fred.

Where have I heard phrases like this before? Oh yes, over at Dr. Mills' SCP group. Just substitute "SunCell technology" for "LENR" and I think you'd fit right in with the BLP cheering squad. I've heard phrases like this elsewhere as well... I realize this is just a picky personal gripe of mine but when I hear phrases like the above coming from both Vortex and the SCP group, it occasionally sounds not all that different to me than listening to a group of fundamentalist Christians waxing on and on about how everything will be set right once the second coming gets underway. IMHO, nuclear physics will not be destroyed by the advent of LENR. I think it will adapt. Regards, Steven Vincent Johnson OrionWorks.com zazzle.com/orionworks
