Re your post on "focused fusion." I don't find sufficient detail to tell precisely how they intend to accomplish whatever they expect to do, but I'm a little troubled by their comment to the effect of "temperatures near one million degrees centigrade have been achieved in the laboratory," and are "near the temperatures required for focused fusion."

That sounds quite reasonable, but their schematic diagram shows this "one million degrees centigrade" in close proximity to one electrode made of copper and another made of brass. This suggests either extremely bizarre metalurgy, or an incomplete concept.

Pardon my doubts, but I am a bit dubious. And it does not look "scientific" at all to me, ... but then they didn't really provide any supporting theory.
