How to make it a useful energy producer efficiently and cost effectively is not a separate issue. LENR with no. 1 file status at the DOE does nothing to gain a return on public funding of theoretical research. This is only one step into the Tar Pit of fossil fuel status quo legislation that will keep LENR "On Hold" for eternity. It can be argued that a mixed basket of energy will emerge with new LENR heat converted to steam driving steam generators. Thus concieved, the LENR today offers no competitive advantage over existing and more profitable energy and is doomed to minor if any wide application. The recent discussion in Congress on Global Warming briefly touched upon nuclear solutions and tabled the discussion with comments about nuclear not being a renewable source of energy. No insite about LENR fusion or it's low cost efficient power applications but only classic "No Nuke" in my backyard hysteria. The idea that, "The birds and bees do not have nuclear power and why should we?" Well... if researched ....we live in a nuclear universe. Like it or not! LENR to do what with heat?

The idea that, “The birds and bees do not have nuclear power and why should we?” Well… if researched ….we live in a nuclear universe. Like it or not!
