The interest is there, as this forum being healthy and growing proves. But I do tend to agree when you say: "the problem is too difficult to solve, and my questions are too difficult to answer".
But that is not a reflection on you, the… -

I will give you more than an example. I will tell you how the fusion process works.
The fusion reaction must first start as a chemical process. This chemical process causes the D and electrons to assemble, a process to which the… -

Dr. Storms, sorry for my ignorance and I may have missed this in this thread. Also I did not read your books yet. But you are saying that in LENR a chemical energy state does interact/influence the reaction. I wasn’t aware of this,… -

Thanks for the comment. But when you say that the Coulomb Barrier does not exist, I know immediately that we are not discussing the same reality. This would be like discussing geology with someone who claims the Earth is flat. … -

Dr. Storms, are you sure that only D+D=>He fusion should be considered? Did you investigate the locations in the nano-gaps that caused He? Are you sure that no other nuclear reactions took place, like e.g. fission of the palladium… -

Ed, I understand that for you the mechanism to initiate LENR is clear: Everyone can do it if using your instructions. You know your ‘GAP-theory’ that initiates LENR is right. The only thing that is missing is how Helium is being… -

Please understand, I am not attacking your character. Nevertheless, we have a different opinion about the nature of the phonon. I know that physicists like to make assumptions about how nature works. These assumptions… -

You, as the result of your comments, cause other people to question the validity of the measurements. Rather than being an advocate of experimental support, you try to find all the flaws. You think you are doing the field a… -

Good question. I believe, and the behavior supports, that all isotopes of hydrogen can be caused to fuse when the required conditions are created. This required condition can be created in any material. However, its creation is… -

This is the most interesting thread I have seen in many years which is in many ways due to the input of the long time experimenter and theorist dr. Ed Storms!
LENR would highly benefit if others like Ed would also join these discussions.
Storms , I highly… -

(Quote from Cydonia)
Cold fusion is not even close to being a useful source of energy, which is why the COP makes no sense. At the present time, the amount of power is just enough to allow the mechanism to be studied. By analogy, we are still at Kitty… -

Alan, skeptics can be very useful. I consider myself a skeptic about certain things. But, the skepticism must be focused where it counts. That cold fusion is real is no longer a subject for skepticism. Now the skepticism must be focused on the… -

That's THH for you Ed. He is our resident septic-skeptic. Since he is generally polite and obviously not too stupid we let him alone most of the time. But he can become a bore. -

I have an important question for TTH. What is your motive for taking the time to reply here? What is your goal? An answer would help structure a proper reply. Right now the discussion is going in circles. You seem determined to suggest any idea that… -

High loading is only required when the extra expansion caused by high loading is required to expand the gaps to the critical size in PdD. After the critical size is created, the high loading is no longer required because the gap… -

I would like to clarify several misunderstandings. My paper has two goals. First, I wanted to show many of the treatments that have caused LENR to occur. This information is important because it demonstrates that LENR can be made to occur in many… -

Ed Storms has very kindly given me permission to use this space to publish a preprint of his latest paper, and hopes to see discussion of the contents here. As many of you know Ed (now in his 90's but still very much a force of nature) has been working…
