Douglas Adams wrote science fiction based comedic novels.

I personally would be willing to entertain a friendly wager on commercial success of LENR within the next five years.

The fact is, if I’m really convinced this is going to happen then I would be following this big-money approach to investing. I have already been in touch with my investment counselor about shorting oil stocks. Perhaps you can give me better terms? At a certain point, such financial transactions become illegal.

No, I based my joke on Douglas Adams. You apparently base your jokes on Alan W. Livingston’s children’s TV character.

So you’ve shorted oil? What options or futures contracts did you buy? How many? What time horizon? I am sure we would all love to follow your lucrative investment strategy, or did Mr. Livingston give you guidance on this as well?

As for a wager, are you suggesting that you will win if a commercial LENR pays its investors double their original investment within 5 years? I would accept those terms, and friendly long term wagers are always even odds so both parties have the same amount reserved.
