Just to clarify -- the above is a hypothetical. Even if what Steven Jones was seeing ended up being LENR proper, the details of the story go back to the early eighties with Fleischmann and then back even further with observations by Paneth and Peters back in the 1920s. So any priority in this instance may be something that is hard one to pin down. Eric
