Widom Larsen Theory LENRs . . . Energy Revolution? with Lewis Larsen President of Lattice Energy

excerpts:  (video is about an hour long)

• strong v weak interactions
• strong interactions are related to weapons programs
• weak interactions weren't considered useful for bombs, nor for power generation
• "cold fusion" was thought to be another strong interaction, but it isn't
• "cold fusion" isn't fusion
• Fleischmann and Pons didn't have a theory to explain the phenomenon
• explains theory - no new physics, existing physics put together in a novel way
• weak interactions produce neutrinos- nature produces them all the time
• collective effects
• in a chemical cell, ie battery, run a current through it, will cause weak interactions
• saturate metal with hydrogen, drops appear on surface, in this droplets a coupling occurs, protons and electrons combine ; [comment: beta decay results and produces the energy]
• no gamma rays- don't need shielding and containment
• like a battery, but lasts a long time, portable products can be made
• more you make of these, the cheaper they get, like PC's [ comment: comparison with Moore's Law]
• use variety of fuels, will cause energy to become cheap and affordable
• discussion of benefits of cheap energy
• Nasa studying it- physics are correct, a matter of engineering now
• interdisciplinary theory partly responsible for nonacceptance, but no flaws found yet
• sometimes effects are not understood at first, Faraday example
• stop at 35 minutes, but there's more.  I'm stopping to post this.  You need to listen to this.
