Hey, there's nuclear fusion on a much larger scale than molecular...
family bonding for example, something of which Neal has no clew.

You are right-that can produce a lot of heat...

Wilbur, Duncan lacks the ability to think out of the box. Exactly why
the Brit's gave up the right to bear arms.


We never had the _right_ to bear arms like in the US constitution.
After the security tightening all licensed holders of shotgun or other gun
permits had to show real need to be allowed to keep them. Reputable gunshop
businesses were forced to close and a couple of owners of them committed
suicide as their livelihood was taken away without compensatioon.
Many shotgun owners like myself voluntarily gave up our shotguns to the
police for destruction because for the sake of the occasional vermin shoot
we could not be arsed to cope with all the bureaucracy. But the criminals
did not give up their guns and gun crime in UK has increased ever since.
All this stems from a dreadful gun massacre in a school by a person against
whom the police had been warned but had failed to act. They had the power
but did not use it.
Then the politicians got into the act because after such a tragedy
politicians feel that they have to be seen to be doing something so they act
to penalise the law abiding population and the criminals carry on and
progress.
Politicians are the same everywhere. Not my favourite kind of people.

We'll have none of that here. In this group, we obey the laws of
thermodynamics!



Yeah, entropy.

But they'll be more complex & more
expensive than a diesel fuel system... and look how many people have
problems with those


Expensive or not, the upside to them is reduction of emissions at the
vehicle. Given economies of scale it's likely hydrogen systems won't have a
price differential for long.

A theory that Mythbusters seems to refute. It was a hydrogen fire.
Hydrogen
goes "Whoooosh!"


Oh of course, since it was on TV and all, that makes it accurate.

Curtain #3????

Hydrogen burns with an "Almost Invisible Flame" in the near UltraViolet
Region of the Color Spectrum. The Flames seen at the Hindenberg Disaster
were significantly "Yellow" in Spectrum, which shows that the majority
of the visibale flames were from other substances burning, like the
Aluminized Doped Fabric of the Outer Covering, and the Rubberized
GasBags, themselves.

Me who at least can read a ColoromMeter......


How do you know the flames were yellow, when the pictures were all
monochrome?

You can dissolve aluminum in a solution of lye,sodium hydroxide, and
generate hydrogen. A dry cleaning bag will lift about a quarter pound.
You can attach a fuse, and send off the balloon, and when the hydrogen
goes whoosh it will ignite the bag. No surprise there.

Hey, Jon-boy. Nuclear fusion happens at the stellar level. Without
nuclear power the Earth would be just another frozen ball of ice.

I know because I have a degree from M.I.T.
