So is Rossi. So are the "magnetic fusion" guys. I suspect Rossi will deliver a pracital power plant before the NIF does. I'm quite familiar with the NIF. I've done consulting work for (and at) LLNL (though not on anything fusion-related).
And again...you're changing the subject. This thread is about LANR/CF, not the NIF. Since you're so convinced that LANR is "not real", and you've "read every paper on the subject", surely you can describe your scientific objections to the concept.
Since you will not accept arguments involving fundamental understanding of fusion (thosed nasty things like the Gamow Window) there is very little that anyone can offer such a high class scientist as yourself.
I note that all the CF folks have been promising deliverables with dates attachede and yet have never done so.
We will see who delivers first.
The real purpose of the NIF is nuclear weapons testing research. Neither they or the Scam Cat inventor will deliver power plants.
