I don't know the particular experiment you mention Jones, but what I do know for having done extensive work on the subject is that pulsed power such as can be found in electrical discharges, especially sparky ones, is extremely difficult to measure.
I fully agree that much more of the big oil profits should go to alternative energy research, but I am not as certain as you are that hot fusion is dead-end wasteful spending. I believe it should have its chance, only other research should have its chance too which is not presently the case.
