Fran,
I think you may know this but if not - it is clear and beyond doubt that Naudin made serious measurement errors in calculating the input current in the MAHG experiment, and these have never been corrected, AFAIK. As for Langmuir and the hydrogen torch, I think there could still be something valid to it - and probably for the MAHG as well. But the experiment is NOT validation. It is too bad that they did not go back and do the experiment correctly - and absurd that the errors are still there on Naudin's site today. Jones
