Would you care to give your best guestamate (don't worry, I won't hold you to it) on how much is theorized to be due to d+d = He+24 MeV, and how much might be due to other processes? Incidentally, to the rest of the Vort Collective, please feel free to add your own speculations as to what these ratios or percentages might possibly be. I'm only asking for reasonable speculation. IOW, speculation is just that: Speculation. Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
