For crying out loud. No one is worried about it! They want to establish the overall limits and identify limiting factors, cost factors and so on. That is what I did in my book for various aspects of cold fusion. Not for Pd in detail, because I never thought it would be the host metal. The person who asked the question is writing to government officials and important people about cold fusion. When you do that, you have to have the facts at your fingertips. People often ask whether supplies of Ni or Pd are sufficient. The answer is: Ni, yes; Pd, probably not, according to Fleischmann. > And it isn't even used up?

The information provided by Defkalion on Ni in response to this question is very useful. - Jed
